DRM May Be Dead, But It's Still Going to Cost You

If you bought the songs originally with DRM, you purchased them with the knowledge that they were at a specific bit rate and that they had DRM. You now have the OPTION of purchasing the DRM-free version at a reduced price. It's an option, my friend. You can keep the DRM version you have, that you originally bought, and you are charged no additional fee.

If you buy a new car that costs $20k and the manufacturer comes out with a newer version with a better engine, would you expect them to give you the newer version for free? No. In fact, I doubt that they'd let you return the original car and just pay the difference in cost to get the new, upgraded car.

I think you are whining too much.
