Maybe so, but I love a challenge, so please let me try :-]

DRM is the scourge of the earth and it's so embedded into the OS (with all 
kinds of shady marketing to try to make itunes as 
ubiquitous as possible) that I wouldn't trust an Apple OS any more than I'd 
trust a Windows OS.


I don't agree with everything Jeff Atwood writes, but I'm pretty close to the 
position he posted in this blog entry:

Also, there are lots of folks who argue with me that "itunes doesn't contain 
any DRM anymore"  If that argument was on the tip of 
your tongue I urge you to consider how you could possibly know that for sure 
(without some kind of insider knowledge of their 
hidden & proprietary code (and ongoing access to that for future releases of 
the OS and/or itunes upgrades).

     be well,
           ~c
