Fairplay (i.e. Apple) is the growing industry standard.

MacDailyNews notates the losers in the war; Betamax, 8-track, and 78 rpm standard bearers join in the alligator tears

Money quote:

"It's the losers (Napster, Microsoft, Sony, Creative, iRiver, RealNetworks, etc.) that are whining. Not music buyers. Not music player buyers. Not Apple. Apple is too busy selling iPods and music online to care about the losers' sour grapes."

When Microsoft develops industry standards--including standards that the market accepts, validates, and essentially ratifies--it's okay. But when Apple does it, somehow it's bad? This chorus of crying is coming from losers who think that OpenSource is still the answer. It's not, when it comes to DRM.
