It's got nothing to do with DRM.

I've used it and still have songs on the mobile from this service months later you keep them forever, they aren't exactly cheap prices.

The major factor is the song sound really poor, I can't believe they charge people $3-$4 per song for what is a 60Kbit type MP3 file that sounds really crackly etc.

The other problem is that the service on the phone here isn't something that's easy to access either it's done via website or a PC program the program is the best way to access it, the website seems to be flaky at best drops out you have little idea what is going on etc.
