I hate to say "I told you so," so I'll just say "duh"

Point well taken, but there is a fine line between "[not] supporting their older programs" and turning off stuff they sold barely a year ago. Are my old copies of "Life & Death" and "Microsoft Flight Simulator version 1" from the mid 1980s "supported" at the moment? No. But there's nothing to stop me from installing them on any compatible hardware I own. (And the lack of compatible hardware is likely to be more of a hurdle than anything the vendors did.)


You're right that being able to continue playing the music is nice, and that not selling DRM anymore is a positive development. It still doesn't make me eager to buy music that's DRM-enhanced.
