Re: Bitrate, Codec used and protection method?

The iPod isn't supported because the King Of DRM Steve Jobs wont licence Fairplay DRM to any other content service provider ,even though Walmart sells millions of iPods for him .

If anything you should complain to Apple about their DRM not being interoperable outside the iTunes\iPod ecosystem .

I think the reason for Apple forcing this is to keep the iTunes system running simple and the way it should. Take a look at the Zune system (how the Fairplay DRM does not work with other Media Player approved DRM) to see how this can get to be a PITA for Joe Consumer.

Riiiiight. It has absolutely nothing to do with locking people into the IPOS.
