Post-Vacation iTunes Round-Up

I'm back from a week's vacation to the west coast that included a friend's wedding, a trip to Big Sur, being in the crowd and then rushing the field in Corvallis after Oregon St. beat USC (go Beavs!), and some good relaxation.

But, of course, the world of the iPod never rests and some interesting bits of news trickled out while I was gone. Here's a round-up of the items that caught my eye related to iTunes (an iPhone round-up is coming tomorrow):

• Another reason not to buy DRM music/video (or, thanks Walmart)
• iTunes adds 6,000 unsigned bands
• Over 1 million NBC TV downloads since NBC returned to iTunes
• Apple to make iTunes 8, iPod nano accessible to the blind
