Not to mention they can revoke your access to your music on iTunes.

iTunes got rid of DRM a decade and a half ago.

Sure but if you don’t have the song downloaded on your PC and they remove it from your library you can’t redownload it.

Most people aren’t backing up the songs they buy on iTunes.

Thank goodness they’ll let you redownload your CD if it gets damaged…
