I agree, your average user won't know that. But, will they care. I think that "mainstream" iPod owners buy all of their music from iTunes and don't really care (or even know) that it is locked to their device. I'm sure the same it true of the majority of Kindle owners. People in this forum are more on the techincal edge and see the potential problems and issues with vendor/device lock in.
