Profs teaching film courses are similarly hosed by DVD copy protection. Basically completely hosed, in fact- DMCA makes it fairly clearly illegal to bypass all the crap that the studios put at the front of the movie, which makes it totally impractical to do the core action of a film class- show film clips.

DMCA supporters? Such people exist? (outside of Hollywood & the Beltway?)

Luis: an excellent point!
naiserie: unfortunately, there are several hundred of them who happen to be members of Congress.

Actually, that's an iTunes limitation rather than a DRM one; if you use QuickTime Player or GarageBand you can edit clips out. With QT Player you will only be able to play them on a licensed machine though. Not sure about Garageband,
Anything you buy form iTunes store should be burned to CD, so you can then exercise fair use on the uncompressed CD Audio.
The reason iTunes Store's DRM doesn't destroy much economic value si that they include the circumvention in the tool itself.
