In a post in Furdlog, Apple, trying to keep one step a head of illegal software expanding iTunes, is forcing it’s customers to download its newest version of iTunes 4.7. Anyone using version 4.2 will not be able to buy music from iTunes Music Store. Also, version 4.7 disables support for iPodDownload, which allowed users to download music from their ipod to their iTunes library. "After Apple threatened my Web-hosting company, and my site was shut down for more than one hour, I had to withdraw the plug-in," Sylvain Demongeot said on the iPodDownload Web site. There are still other programs out there that Apple has not been able to disable which allow users to transfer music from their ipod to their computer. Again, this brings the point of “whatever you can encrypt, I can hack better.” It’s the same old story. They shutdown Napster, and five other p2p programs pop up. They shutdown those and ten more pop up. Apple is trying to slow down piracy by disabling iPodDownload and making its customers download the newest version of itunes program but someone will come up with another program compatible with the newest version. Apple can continue to play this game but eventually the other side is going to wear them down. They’re going to need different strategy especially as online music grows.
Once again, it is important to note that the programs mentioned did not hack the encryption or DRM features included on protected AAC files downloaded from the iTunes music store.
Apple is trying to keep iTunes from being used as a 2-way street. As designed, iTunes is designed to move music TO the iPod and not back from it. Modifications to the iTunes software are prohibited by the end user license agreement (EULA).
Apple is enforcing the terms of its license agreement. Perhaps this is why the other programs mentioned (which do not directly modify / change / enhance iTunes itself) are not presently in the cross hairs of Apple.
And there are likely other reasons for requiring an upgraded version of iTunes to access the music store: new features, updates, etc. iTunes 4.2 is nearly a year old at this point--at some time it becomes easier to require an upgrade than to support older software when issues have been resolved in later iterations of the product.
