What I find petty is that you can play Apple AAC music files on an Android phone and most other music devices, including Windows devices, but you can't play Windows WMA music files on an IPhone. It's just a file format. So, you can buy music from the Apple Store and play it anywhere, but, if you buy music from somewhere else, Apple will block you from playing it on an IPhone. It's not a give and take.
