Just look at the U2 fiasco. "Your" music is on their cloud, and they can give and take from it as they like. That's the hidden cost of streaming and music services like iTunes. You don't own anything. You're just renting content on their terms.

There are enough dystopian novels (and historical accounts of the real thing) to teach us that this is a terrible idea.

Amazon did the same thing when they deleted George Orwell's books from millions of customers' devices.

I don't trust any corporation with my literature, music, or cinema. And paying for crippled restricted content is insanity.
