Apple Blocks PyMusique

We all knew that it wouldn't last.

News.com is reporting that Apple has successfully blocked
PyMusique's ability to purchase non-DRM'ed music from the iTMS.  In a statement today, Apple noted: "The security hole in the iTunes Music Store which was recently exploited has been closed, and as a consequence the iTunes Music Store will now sell music only to customers using iTunes version 4.7."

So, if you've been holding off on upgrading to avoid the new limits Apple placed on your tracks, I'm afraid you won't be able to shop the iTMS. So much for that "Don't whine about DRM, just don't upgrade" argument that everybody keeps pitching my way. As for all the others who keep saying "that's what you get for supporting DRM associated music" if you could point me to some good music that I could purchase legally that doesn't have any connections to the RIAA or DRM, I'd love to hear about it.

We need to have a march and a banner and some t-shirts: DOWN WITH DRM!
