It's just a convenience, I doubt Apple will even react to this.

No special server-side setup, right.space2go said:OurTunes on the other hand allows you to download music from people who just have turned on sharing in iTunes.
Wigletbill said:You can't use the songs from the iTunes store and you can't get these over the net.... seems to me like no big deal. If you can walk over to the person who is getting your songs you could hand them cd as well. This is not something the RIAA could get too bent out of shape about. It is music you (should) already own a hard copy of and you cannot stop someone form letting their friends borrow a cd or burning it for them. It is eco-friendly by saving cds!
