This is all my personal opinion.

> withdrew DRM, since it totally failed, like it always will

iTunes Music Store (solely selling DRMed content?) appears to be doing pretty 
well... over 2bn songs, 50m TV episodes and 1.3m films sold [1]. It turned over 
around $1.7bn last financial year [2].

Doesn't make it right, of course, but it's hardly "failed".

- they don't breakdown the revenue far enough, but its about $1.7 to $1.8bn I'd 
reckon.
