[QUOTE="MacBiter, post: 1948062, member: 421638"] That is quite correct, but it's not an Apple thing. Ever since the earliest days of records - long before iTunes ever existed - you don't actually "own" the music you buy, just the right to play it; if you own any old vinyl you will see some wording such as "public broadcasting is prohibited" and other similar strictures. As for the CD thing, Apple were probably just trying to discourage you to circumvent DRM in the way I said above, but they couldn't charge you more for doing so. [/QUOTE]
