I have been fighting with the Zune program long enough. Now I get some jazz about needing to sign into my Zune Passport to access 43 of my songs, most of which have worked fine for over a year. The Passport is the thing you buy for so long and can download all of the songs you want. I have never done that, I just buy the cards at Wal-Mart or Target and enter the code to get points; I would like to stay with that system if I could.
I want to buy my music free and clear from now on, if I have to buy a CD to do that I am fine with it. I got tired of that because you buy so many extra songs when only one or two are actually any good… but at least they can’t deny your rights on random tracks for no reason.
I have been researching other places to buy music, ITunes is supposed to be DRM free, is it really? Will the songs play ok on my Zune? (no freaky exclusive formats?) Is there a way to convert the songs I still have to prevent them from going down the tubes too?

I have to be signed in to play them, and they can't have screwed up the DRM rights for them to work.
