Default Vista...? Proceed with caution!

AllofMp3 is in it's own hot water at the moment with other like sites no
doubt to follow.

US Music Publishers Sue AllofMP3 for $1.65 Trillion

In a move curious only due to its relatively late timing, the major record
production labels in the US have filed suit in federal court against Russian
online music distributor AllofMP3.com, seeking $150,000 USD for each single
violation of copyright infringement for tracks the site posted without
authorization.

Hi Andre,

I don't really understand your point. I know that DRM rears its ugly head
in many places these days, and certainly not least Apple and iPod etc.
However, the effects of this are fairly minimal, and can be fairly easily
go around if required (eg by using MP3s and not AAC files, and using
AllOfMP3 rather than iTunes)
