I do definitely like that idea, but for me, my music preferences are
largely out of my control.

There's stuff I like that I have no idea why (Aqua! <blush>), and
there's stuff I dislike that I really should like. (The White Stripes)

Unfortunately all of what I like is in the DRM camp, and try as I might
I can't stop liking it.  I have stopped buying it though and I'm
sticking to older albums.

Also the matter has already been decided - so much of the music
industry (~99%) is now following DRM that I'm not convinced a boycott
will do anything.
