I'd also like to point out, since I am a complete drm hater, that supporting open format commercially allows you to switch devices seamlessly and greatly enhances the number of backup options available to you. If you buy locked down content, you can hardly blame the provider for not letting you in after you throw away your ring of keys. If you were an irresponsible consumer and bought a product without understanding what it was intended to do, then don't jump onto a public forum and vilify the people who sold the product. It just displays your own ignorance.
It's great entertainment value for the rest of us and I'm sure the asperin retalers local to the moderators of this list appreciate it, but other than that there's no practical use.
