What exactly did their program do that Apple hate (or fear) so much?

It took the DRM-enabled AAC music files that you can purchase from iTunes and ripped out the DRM restrictions. You would then be able to use the file any way you wanted to without worrying about any "3 computers only" limit. |

That was easy to do before PlayFair came along.

Yes, but PlayFair automated it to a degree. Then again, how can Apple cry foul over removing it's DRM from the file when their own program does the same thing by burning songs to a normal audio CD?

Because their program isn't removing the DRM from the files. It's just burning an audio CD. But the fact of the matter is, it's their program, and their TOS says that you can't do it with anything besides their program. |
