One caveat: Three DRM-infected songs remain. Not bad, considering that my iTunes music library—just the music, not including podcast, lectures, audiobooks, and etc.—contains over 2,000 items or 6.2 days of no repeat listening. Apple loves me. I've bought a lot of music from them over the years. Of course, many of those were CDs I imported, and a few are songs bought from Amazon, but most are straight from the iTunes store.

So why can't I get replacements for those three? The answer is that iTunes no longer sells those three songs. One was a major disappointment: Emerson, Lake & Palmer playing "Bo Diddley". It's on one of the few Emerson, Lake & Palmer albums I never bought (most on vinyl), Return of the Manticore (a 4-disc retrospective).
