I think it is less about them caring and more about them not knowing. I bet the majority of iTunes users don't know that if they went an bought a Zune or a Sandisk MP3 player that none of their iTune songs would work on them. If that happens this will be the point that they DO card. Not only will they care, they will be quite upset.

PS: Yes, I know that most songs on iTunes are now DRM free and soon all will be. But, previously purchased music will retain the DRM unless you upgrade them which I am pretty sure you have to pay for $.30 a song.
