Now, every song available on the iTunes Store is an iTunes Plus song. That means you get high-quality music with 256-Kbps AAC encoding, making every song you download virtually indistinguishable from the original recording. iTunes Plus songs are all free of burn limits and digital rights management (DRM). So the music you buy will play on iPod, Apple TV, all Mac and Windows computers, and many other digital music players.


Oh hey, and it's DRM free, unlike most of your shitty alternatives. See, another pro to a Mac, is the fact that Apple designs all of their products from the ground up for compatibility with their computers, kind of like how Microsoft supplies with you calculator. Only all the software that they include is actually fleshed out and fully functional, so you don't need to go and buy/download a shitty third party alternative (EX: Winamp, Firefox (and no, don't misunderstand this, I AM calling Firefox shitty, memory whore.) and garbage like Trillian.) You pay for what you get; A steak with all the sides, or goulash, with random **** thrown in, in hopes it works properly.

This post has been automatically spell and grammar checked by OS X, a feature it supplies by default to all programs written for it, which don't worry, along with a dock-ripoff, I'm sure Windows 7 will have.

Although that awful DRM crap was courtesy of the music industry, to begin with.

This should go without having to be said, but **** the music industry, we (not including me of course.) support them over the years, only to be bombarded with the lousy **** they push on us now, (IE: Nickleback, whom should die in an incinderary lightshow as soon as possible.) and THEY complain about the things WE do? Apple is the best damn thing that's happened to the music industry in a long time as far as pushing sales goes (They have statistics, look them up and present proof before arguing against it.) and then Apple shows that they have hairy man-balls by telling them to shove their DRM **** up their asses.

We all complain about McDonalds because their **** sucks, but it's the number one fastfood in the world because it's available and it's cheap. For those of you who are unable to make the connection, same goes for windows. Excuse me while I pay a bit extra for a man-burger from Hardees. (Carl's Jr for those who have those instead (Same restaurant, different name geographically for whatever reason.))

Hey man, if you got the money and the house to morgage for a Mac book be my guest, I just hate everyone that gives windows such a hard time when it completely superior to a Mac. Most I LIKE CUSTOMIZATION. Yes Mac comes with everything you need but NOT everything you want, when Macs are customizable and get heads out of thier arses I'll give them less crap, till then I still dream of the day I am a millionare and can afford a Mac, even though I'll go broke I'll buy it just to be able to pizz on it and die a happy man.

You couldn't have stated "I have absolutely no idea what I am talking about." better than that. Bravo.

It's okay man, people fear the unknown.

Being a recent Linux convert, I have to say that Apex is being the perfect example of a Mac user right now, and Rahl isn't doing it right.
