After I lost those purchases, I made sure that I either bought non-DRM products, or stripped the DRM off to ensure that I would retain the ability to access what I had bought no matter what device I used.
We've all been there and been just as PO'd as you. And that is why I made a personal decision to strip all the content I buy.

Oh, and fjtorres: "Either you're comfortable doing it or you're not.
The legal liability issue is a moot point either way."

I don't think that word means what you think it means.
