'So when MS deliberately cripples the Mac version of WMP so that it can't play DRM'ed files, that's not the same thing?'

No, because they're crippling software, not hardware. If you think that software is the same as hardware, then you must also concede by extension that pirating a piece of software is the same LITERALLY is ripping it off of a store shelve.
And anyway, why do people try and defend Apple this way by bashing MS? Is it really that good to be the lesser of two evils?
