Anti-iPhone ad too close for Apple's comfort

He cracked the encryption used on DVDs when he was 15 but now the Norwegian hacker known as DVD Jon has a bigger target in his sights: Apple.

Through his new company, doubleTwist, Jon Lech Johansen, now 25, erected a giant banner ad on the side of the flagship Apple Store in downtown San Francisco that encouraged passers-by to bypass the iPhone.

Songs purchased from Apple's iTunes store can't be played on non-iPod devices, and, if you've bought songs from other music stores, the chances are you won't be able to play them on the iPod either since they use a form of copy protection that Apple doesn't support.

Not anymore... All music on iTunes is now DRM-free... so only the stuff bought before April 1 (and even then, a lot of the store was iTunes Plus) wouldn't be able to be played elsewhere.

I'd suggest people bypass the iPhone too... bypass using it
