It would just unnecessarily raise the price. And I wouldn't accept DRM-tainted music even if it was free.

I don't understand why Nokia don't offer a subscription option to Comes With Music.
On a high end phone like N900, It would be nice to have high end options.

There is huge segment of the market that is happy with DRM, ie iTunes, so why not just create more options for Nokia Owners.

For the record i think DRM was one of the dumbest and most crippling concepts to come to the digital music distribution scene. I believe apple and the record industry realized this as well after what i can only assume to be some devastating profit losses. Since they changed their policy i now buy music from i Tunes once again. I have a iPod but never use it. its just easier to get music for my nokia n95 using itunes. i hope it works the same way when my n900 gets here finally
