Creative Following RIAA Requests

Following RIAA requests (not to say heavy pressure), Creative, probably the only real competitor for Apple in Europe, has removed one of the feature in its "Zen" model: one can not record music or news, nor radio on this player, as it used to be before.
This function is locked when performing the last firmware update.
Now, let's see if the RIAA will also be as efficient to lock the music sharing function found in the Microsoft Zune, many music majors or artists associations are already against such option.
