Which is, IMHO, stupid.  I bought the music, I should be able to do 
whatever I want with it on any machine I own.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the DRM'd songs you buy on iTunes 
come encoded in a lossy format?  THis is one of the reasons I buy CDs -- 
I like the idea that I'm getting the best quality available (I know 
there are technical superiors to conventional CD's, but how often do you 
see them in stores?)
