What is the % of people who own an iPhone or iPod and know what DoubleTwist is or would take the effort to try it? Whatever extremely high number that is translates to the % of people who would not jump ship to the Pre without iTunes.

Well Apple pulled another way to block users from keeping an old Itunes version and not upgrading. I tried to redeem a song that I got from a Sta*bucks and I cam getting a message that this song can only be redeemed by upgrading to 9.0. What a load....Good thing I have 4 PCs at my disposable, I will use one with the latest and the one I sync my Pre with at my old working version....When will this madness end, what a joke....Good thing I have all the CDs that I ripped with Itunes and can re-rip using a non Apple solution when I have the time. Looks like I will use Am*zon MP3 for all future purchases.

Here is the image from Itunes I am getting:
