BitTorrent and Azzy for me.
Itunes uses AAC, which is the audio codec of MP4 DVD movie files, but they do add a 'lock and key' system, which only lets the song play on authorized players / computers. Another thing many people don't know is that they encode the song with the info on who purchased it. So, if it ends up on napster, or something, they can tell who did it. The file extension on itunes files is M4p, which signifies this protected MP4. There are ways around this.
