Real's Response: Kiss Our A--

Vunet: Real is responding to Apple, "That is why so many consumers have welcomed the news of Harmony. Consumers, and not Apple, should be the ones choosing what music goes on their iPod."

Of course, all of this is getting silly. No one is telling people they can't choose what music to put on their iPods. Go to the music store, buy that Hootie CD (someone has to), take it home, rip it, and BOOM! it's on your iPod.

Really, the issue comes down to consumers being able to choose which DRM goes on their iPod -- an entirely different question. Is anyone, other than manufacturers of different DRM schemes, asking for this? Anyone at all?
