Yes.. but its a  relative thing. .. they are poor value but I still
think DRM music is unacceptable value.

!other day for the first time in years, and they actually sell DVDs at
!=A322 - unbelievable)

They don't sell any to me at that price :) I can't remember the last time
I bought a CD/DVD in a physical shop. All mine are bought over the
t'internet and I always do a price comparison before placing my order
with any particular oneline store :)

!allofmp3.com is the winner everytime.... ;)

A fair point, but I have an iPod, and really like it. I have >3000
tracks on it, exactly zero have DRM. I have and will have no
restriction at all.
