i can agree with that sentiment, but i'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt for now. if they come out with a good, easy to use and fair online music service, then i'm all for it. i don't think it will be, mind you, but i'm willing to entertain the notion that it's possible.

i'd really just like for iTunes-Windows to get released and cement Apple as the standard bearer for fair online distribution of music. I expect to own a mac within the next couple of months, but it'd be nice to see apple make money from the other 95% of computer users, and give people what they want at the same time.
