Actually, Apple is against DRM. They don't want it. They are completely unconcerned about whether or not you pirate media. In fact, it probably works out better for them if you do (cause you might buy more Macs to do it with). You'll also notice that they've worked on removing DRM from iTunes purchases as well. Apple has nothing to lose by eliminating DRM.The reason they apply it is because the content providers (the RIAA and MPAA) flat-out refuse to let Apple sell their content unless it's locked down with DRM. You will notice that as the iTunes store gains momentum and market share, you see more DRM-free content... because Apple knows that content providers would be shooting themselves in the foot now to remove their products from the store. Hopefully, as Apple gains more influence in the market space, DRM will be removed from the content all together.Apple may be a lot of lousy things... but they aren't your problem where DRM is concerned.
