Just my opinion
I can see no reason for this change other than the software's proprietary tie in to iPod. While you can use a lot of other services to load your iPod, since you must use iTunes' software. For many less technical users, having iTunes software equals using iTunes store since they are not as aware of limiting factors like DRM. As users become more educated, and I hope we are all working to educate them, I would look to see sites that do not limit user's rights through DRM to take the lead.
