Not sure that I completely agree with this since it may make a difference to those iPod owners 5 years from now, but for anyone who owns an iPod today, your dead on. That said, it sure would be nice to decide on a player without being concerned about whose DRM I'm using.

Four, SBC, Ameritech, Pacific Telesis, and Bell South are all part of the new AT&T. AT&T also bought SNET which was not part of the original 7. Verizon was a merger between Bell Atlantic and Nynex, and US West (now QWest) rounds out the pack.
