True, and I agree with what Ed said in the first post. I wouldn't blame anybody for downloading songs from a P2P network that they lost due to a DRM failure. The people played by the rules, but WalMart changed those rules in the middle of the game.

Then they made it worse by giving people less than two weeks to fix things. If somebody is on vacation for a couple of weeks, they're screwed. Companies should have to give at least three months notice before doing something like this.
