This isn't about the sale, its about the aftermath. The fact that my song may not be playable in a week because of a decision the company makes is what sucks. The fact that my music player that I invested 300 dollars into may suddenly not be able to play the music I bought for it is what sucks. Completely missed the point.

I think that is the point exactly. You have a choice as to what, where and how to download or rip your content. If you choose to download from a site that has severe restrictions on its use, then it's your fault. Go somewhere else. It's just like the restaurant scenario above. If you don�t like the food or service don�t go to the restaurant. BUT you don�t have the right to try the food and then say it was bad and walk out without paying. Caveat emptor.
