That just what i was going to find and quote. PlayForSure could
concevably by handled in the SBs firmware, especially because it
already handles native WMA playback. This would also be an advantage
for licensing, as the stream that is being send to the SB would have
the DRM entact and only the audio out (digital or analogue) is non
DRM.

I have my doubts that we will see the ability to play iTunes purchased
music playable (without hacks or work arounds), certainaly not in the
near future anyway. Apple just aren't going to let anyone do that. Not
unless the general public wake up to the limitations of DRM audio, or
there is an anti trust or class action suit against Apple (and probably
the whole industry).

just my £0.02 :)
