In what way? There's no DRM. It's not tied to an apple account. Music I've downloaded from iTunes now resides on non-apple kit same as that from Bandcamp, 7digital, etc. Hell some of its even on CDs for when I still had a player in the car, now the car has a USB stick.

To be pedantic, there was DRM on music purchased on iTunes prior to 2009. Was a bit of a ballache converting that back in the day. Could've been worse though, I do like to buy most of my music physically so I didn't have to convert too much of my collection (still a ballache though cos it was still way more files than I wanted to convert).
