Yeah, I just read this on the net and I must say that this hugely sucks cause I, for one, have purchased over the years lots of music from them and I read that if I wanna transfer these songs to other computer than the one I have right now after August 31, 2008, those songs will not successfully play.And I don't really intend to keep this computer for ever, c'mon I'm gonna change it some day.What am I supposed to do with all this music?

The main reason this is an issue to capture in some way the audio stream while playing it back, is either you're re-encoding the file (mp3, ogg vorbis, whatever) and it's lossy, so you deteriorate it in order to save it, or you're using for example 16/44 audio CD quality in aiff, wav whatever, and you're recording then files with new interpolated material…
either way, it's bad for the file…
One simple move that should have been taken by M$, would have been to make available same quality files as the one you bought with DRM but without them, and then no issue. You've got the file in the quality you've bought first hand… But it would be respectful for customers… (shame!)
