All God's chillun got opinions.

On the whole, I can live with that.

I'm sorry to hear about _your_ problem.

Quoting:

   According to Apple: iTunes will only play AAC files that are created by
   iTunes or downloaded from the Music Store. "Other AAC files that you
   find on the Internet or elsewhere will not play in iTunes." However,
   Anecdotal evidence does not support this. Users have reported being able
   to play AAC files encoded outside of iTunes. [ Tech Note <link> ]

   - AACs you rip from CD yourself (via iTunes) have no restrictions.

Now, don't you have some warez to work on, sonny?
