I knew what you meant. But, do keep in mind that "everyone" complaining about DRM is usually the technerati that have the opinion that all software should be free. Of course, as long as you pay them! The mainstream iPod user that buys at iTunes has no idea or cares about DRM in any way. They are also not going to pay $.30 per song to get the DRM free versions. They might pay it because they are higher quaility bit rates. MIGHT.
