Steve Jobs got anti-drm when he cornered the market for upscale multimedia devices. I remember him praising drm and vowing to keep one step ahead of the hackers not long ago in "real time", though maybe ages in Internet time...
Bezos will get anti-drm if the Kindle will corner the e-book devices, be sure of that. As for music, well he needs to sell songs not devices, so of course he is anti-drm. If he would need to sell devices, lock-in helps so he would be pro-drm. Oh, the just mentioned Kindle, forgot for a moment about it
