....and then i notice a little button in WMP. "Buy this CD"

What the hell? If i didn't buy it in the first place, i wouldn't see that link. So what the hell is the point?

the pink on the wmp is pwn.


I guess they just expect people to pirate it, and want to make a quick buck

Esuna has the pink on everything, because he is more man than you can handle.

Also, yeah, I'm betting the link is for piracy. I'm sure MS gets money every time you click that link. They're hoping you'll have a sudden attack of conscience about your pirating ways and decide to buy every album you've ever downloaded.
