I know many people who love it like yourself. I simply don't. I have serious ongoing issues with both Apple and Microsoft's DRM thinking. Once I have paid for media, I will "M" my own "DR" as I see fit. I actually downloaded the song, as I mentioned in the piece here. I liked it well enough, and really love a lot of (though certainly not ALL of) David Byrne's stuff. Hope they do some more collaborating! Thanks Terry, but you can keep your iTunes.

They also have a new pricing standard which will address your ownership issues. I love iTunes and have used it for as long as I can remember and with my iPod Touch I actually download songs on it if I am in bed at night and remember a song. Not to mention how cool the new Genius feature is that creates playlists based on what you like and suggests other music you might like. I also like David Byrne... a lot... I think I will spend a dollar and enjoy this new song. I'll let you know how it is and if you are lucky, maybe I will play it in the background when we talk on the phone.
