New member here, something interesting happened to my iTunes library
tonight. I went to iTunes Store to find out that 5 of the DRM protected
songs in my Purchased library were now available DRM-free and with
better compression from iTunes Plus for $0.30/ea. So I decided to try
it out and see if the newly downloaded songs would play over the
Squeezebox in my living room's home theater. After the 5 iTunes Plus
songs downloaded I shut down and restarted Squeezecenter (7.3.1, which
I also downloaded tonight) to allow a rescan of my iTunes library.
After a while I fired up the Squeezebox in the other room and, lo and
behold, the 5 newly "freed" files play no problem, and sound great.
Funny thing is, now ALL my iTunes files play no problem, hundreds of
supposedly protected DRM songs I could not play until yesterday through
my Squeezebox stream just fine and play loud and clear!

What'd they do, zap DRM protection from all my purchased iTunes library
tonight as I was downloading those handful of Plus files? I thought DRM
protection would be removed only after paying Apple an extra $0.30 via
iTunes Plus? Guess not. I'm happy of course, but i hope it's not a
fluke... Hope your experience is similar.
