The problem with people slagging of DRM is, are they pirates themselves?.

If the the people complaining are law abiding citizens fair enough , but I suspect they are just moaning because it makes theft harder.

Remember there is zero difference between copying a cd and giving it to a mate and walking into a shop and shoplifting it.

You do not and will never 'own' the music on a cd you buy merely the right to play it
