DRM has to be supported in the player firmware. In case of the the
players based on the ip3k chips the point is moot as they can not
accomodate any moore big changes even if logitech wanted (similar
things have been discussed in the past )
They can't even bring AAC to these players, they are full . And the
latest development is that they don't develop new functions for this
platform anymoore anyway, but in this case I think it is unfeasible for
technical reasons.

"ip3k" based players SB2 ,SB3 (aka SB classic) Transporter ,Boom ,
Receiver part of the duet .

That leaves Touch and Radio as possible candidates, this would then be
a business decision of some kind ?

Practical solutions .

The wave input plugin for squeezeboxserver ? you can then play the
files in WMP and then let the wave input plugin capture the audio ?

Can you "wash" these files in some way ? maybe the tedious way of
burning CD's and then rip them, you can reuse an rw disc for it
maybe..

download music you already paid for as "backup copy" .Microsoft has
historically abandoned other drm schemes leaving their customers in the
cold with useless files.
Using this kind of service is more like renting a movie than buying
music .
