I couldn't sleep on my vacation last week and I remembered that the hip released their new album the day before. I reached over, picked up my phone, previewed all the tracks and bought a few that stood out to me.
One thing that does irk me is that the drm is still very prevalent on the movies and tv shows you buy from itunes. I bought the first season of Lost to take on vacation and getting the episodes to work on my laptop was more painful than I expected. I authorized the machine and everything, but the files just would'nt play smoothly. I tried throwing them onto my iphone and then plugging that into my computer, but of course itunes won't let you play content off your iphone if it isn't your primary computer. Drove me nuts actually. It would have made way more sense to just steal the season via bit torrent and use those files (and leave the files I purchased at home).

If you buy a DRM free track in iTunes, can you now convert it to MP3 format?
