I think it's safe to call false on this one... Yet another rather mad theory...

I disagree. Of course Apple wouldn't want that to happen and they would probably use a hardware encryption scheme tying each OS X installation to a specific iPod among other things. There are encryption techniques out there that aren't crackable (at least by anyone other than certain 3 letter agencies) despite Apple's decision to use a rather weak copy protection scheme for the OS x86 developer boxes.
