I've heard that iTunes users can "upgrade" to DRM-free music for .30 a song. To me, it sounds like a "rent to buy" program if you think about it.

I also heard that they will be 256kbps AAC files - a fairly significant quality improvement. They really need to sell lossless files (I won't hold my breath for FLAC, but that would be ideal - I might actually buy something from them).

I just upgraded all of my iTunes Store-purchased content (227 songs/14 albums) to DRM unwrapped, 256K content for $49 using iTunes Plus. Seemless, fast and easy.
