DVDneXtCOPY iTurns Removes iTunes DRM with Virtual CD Burner

[Jeffrey Watts]

If you don't want to use DRM protected music, DON'T BUY IT.

No one is forcing you to use it.  Not even Apple.  You can buy CDs (you can
even buy them online!) or buy downloaded music without DRM and use it on
your iPod.  Or you can buy an MP3 player from someone else and use it, if
you hate Apple so much.  Hell, the option of burning music to CDs was
included by Apple over the objections of some labels, because Apple felt
that people deserved to be able to make fair-use copies of their music.

The point here is that you have CHOICE.  Use the power of choice and stop
whining so damn much about stuff.

J.

P.S.  Apple has stated NUMEROUS times that they don't like DRM, and they've
actively encouraged labels to issue their music DRM-free (hence iTunes
plus).  The problem is NOT Apple, the problem are the music labels.  Feel
free to rant at them, but keep in mind that it's been done to death and I
think people here on this list are tired of listening to your impotent
crying.
