  What does it involve and what difference does it make?
  
  I find it difficult enough downloading/purchasing stuff already on iTunes, it'd have to be something good for me to change anything!

  It removes the DRM and gives you a higher quality bit rate..the standard 128kbps bit rate of iTunes was a joke and I'm surprised people were willing to pay CD prices for anything but CD quality.
  
  I use Amazon downloads as much as possible...they don't DRM protect their music and the bit rate is good enough for hi-fi listening on decent equipment.....and they are giving iTunes a run for their money.
  
  Theres now some real competition and I'm sure that motivated iTunes to switch...altho' they have a cheek charging when you have already paid over the odds for very lossy 128kbps songs.

  I haven't, and have no intentions of doing. I am not paying more money to upgrade the songs that should have been DRM free in the first place.

  i assume the charge is for the use of the bandwith again? do you think they have any plans to let you choose what you upgrade?
