Apple is pulling NBC shows from the iTunes store before the fall season
NBC wanted $4.99 a show, inspiring a well deserved W.T.F? I'm sure whatever craptacular solution the big old brains working for Zucker are sure to hastily deliver will suck royally, driving folks like me to torrent the next season of Battlestar Galactica.

Apple quietly unveiled My iTunes, a widget for sharing your iTunes purchases
Sorta weird that it only shows your purchased music, not music you're playing in iTunes. Apple, I knew LastFM. LastFM was a friend of mine. You, My iTunes, are no LastFM.

Apple - Thoughts on Music
Steve Jobs on the state of online music, downloads and DRM. One of his lackey's should've highlighted the word "DRMs" though because it has a sort of Ted Stevens-esque quality to it.
