The Irony.

If you buy DRM free music from ITMS, you purchase
industry standard media that can play on any device
that supports the industry standard mp4. On-the-
other-hand, if you buy from some other sites, you get
wma. Last I checked wma was not industry standard
but more like Microsoft standard. Since the media
industry is larger than MS, MS does not have the
standard. MP4 was standardized by the media
industry.

Now if Hollywood would let Apple sell the video
content DRM free, the same would apply there.

So your "probably not" prediction is probably not necessarily true in the future. Today however I cannot
argue your point.

You know, there are a lot of Arizona Cardinal fans. I
cannot figure it out but it's true. While Apple is no
loser like the Cards, there are fanboys for everything. I
don't however make a connection between fanboy and
zealot. It's the difference between disliking something
and hating something. The two are not the same.
Being a fanboy of Apple products does not a zealot
make.
