You're just an Apple hater. I'm not fanboy, as an iPod Nano I bought last month is the first (and currently only) Apple product I've ever owned.

But it's hardly unique to them.

Amazon and Sony e-books (along with other stores)? DRM'd to one account, no resell ability.

Most computer software in download form? Licensed to one machine/user, can't be sold.

Download games on the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 or Wii? Tied to your account, can't be resold.

There's not much digital content out there currently that you have the ability to sell etc. like you do physical property. And it's hardly just Apple putting DRM on stuff etc. It's a problem that plagues all areas of digital content, aside from music which if finally DRM free--even in iTunes.
