Good question. I've been asking that myself. Could it have been that the DRM was too good on the music? I never bought any encrypted music, so I don't know what kind of effort it took to remove the encryption. It may also have to do with music being something that people want to play over and over again for years (on various devices of varying capabilities). With books, I suspect that most people read them once and then never look at them again.
