I thought that was the case. When a friend of mine told me
that, I was skeptical, but I don’t have an iPod or use iTunes so I could verify
that claim. From:

Behalf Of McIntosh Jason Nope, never had an issue like that. I also should
mention, that how could it verify such authenticity for a non-drm file?
Particularly since you can change the ID3 tags, etc. There's NO way to
validate such information, realistically. iTunes is a media manager, that can play AAC, MP3, and a
number of other formats. It's just got automatic control of the iPod
built in, so if you've got an iPod, you use iTunes to manage the media list on
that iPod. I use it b/c it's easy to use, syncs automatically with little
work, rips CD's easily, and overall is a pretty good media manager. I
just don't use the iTunes store at all - I'll buy a CD and rip it to avoid DRM
files. In other words, use some common sense people. It's
like saying iTunes will automatically format your drive if you don't call apple
right now and tell them your social security number, where you were born,
etc. This response to me is the same as an internet hoax spam mail. Jason -- /--------------------------------------|---------------------------\ | Jason

have heard rumors from other people that iTunes wil wipe an MP3 or other music
file of the iPod if it cannot verify authenticity of purchase or rip from a CD
you own. Perhaps an iPod owner on this list could verify or negate that
rumor. From:

I
am confused, you mean I can use Napster's service on an iPod? My impression was
that if I wanted to buy online music, I had to buy it though iTunes, or I had
to rip it from a purchased CD in MP3 format?
