PlaysForSure hits the Xbox 360 by way of iRiver's H10

Microsoft's (or at least Bill's) love of iRiver
MP3 players is no secret, and today iRiver announced their
H10 will be the first device ready to play back /
stream PlaysForSure content through the Xbox 360 (presumably via its USB ports) with a firmware update to the MP3 player. Still, kinda makes you wonder why iRiver needed a firmware update to do this when the PlaysForSure audio DRM
standard is already Microsoft's, and that the 360 itself can play back
PlaysForSure audio as a Media Center Extender — but we'll try not to take it for granted that it could be more complicated than it sounds.
