I came across this thread again recently, and now I realize it really was a pointless one to begin with. I wasn't thinking about DRM-free media at the time, and nostalgia and personal preferences were clouding my ability to think rationally about the topic.

Made interesting reading this thread,

I ditched smartphones after the last of four went TU and I was told I would have to buy another with updated Android version.
Now, a laptop is a laptop and a phone a phone (not an overpriced minicomputer)! LOL
