There's two points there. Firstly, I do believe I I pointed out the spin in this article, I dedicated the last part of the article to it after all so I'm not pretending there is no spin on this. I don't speak for all Mac fans so please reply to what I post rather than what mac fans in general think!

Secondly, I do think that Apple have been less evil about their DRM than Microsoft were with the Zune. Apple at the very least do enough for the consumer that it appears they have their interests at heart. What other DRM lets you put the protected content on 5 computers and an un-limited number of the corresponding portable players? Apple fought hard and got a descent deal for FairPlay, MS bent over backwards and volunteered to pay the IRAA 1 dollar per Zune! They also illegally add DRM to open source content when you beam it to another Zune. I'd prefer there to be no DRM but when you put Zune DRM next to FairPlay it's clear that all DRMs are not created equal.

Sure, there are apple fan-boys out there who would applaud any old iProduct but that does not mean that every time some one says something good about Apple that it's just fan-boy fantasy!
