I have zero protected content. It isn't a problem.

Zach, another question. If you also have zero protected content, then
I'mguessing your library includes nothing from one of the new online music
services (including Microsoft's new one). What's your perspective on these?
On the one hand, they seem like a good idea, and on the other it seems like
the use of such material is awfully restrictive, and I'm very leary of what
adding protected content will do to the rest of my collection. Any thoughts?
Zach or anyone?
