I read about this at several sites over the weekend. One site, I think it was Engadget (the downside of RSS feeds is all the news sources start to blend together), stated that the remedies under consideration included refunds and DRM-free MP3s. Since I am uncertain of the source, speculating on the validity would be silly.
Aha... Searching is your friend.
Engadget's article is here. Sounds like they are only speculating on possible remedies, rather than quoting the spokesperson, though.
