Incorrect. Just about any non-corrupt mp3 will work on an iPod.

Now, eAudiobooks, those won't play on an iPod.

But, back to the topic, I really don't see Apple going down this path
happily. Microsoft is doing this so they can own the entire distribution
path for "premium content". And in the process, create enough collateral
damage to ensure consumers have to buy into it.

But Apple's already in that position now with music (and mostly on the
merits of their product, not through some draconian hardware spec). They
are starting to dictate terms to the content providers.

Interesting times. Lucky us. :-\
