DRM-free iTunes: wash, rinse, repeat?

I love it!! This is classic. Some clever programmers built an application that emulates iTMS client, but conveniently forgets to add the DRM to any files purchased through the service. Sounds great to me. iTMS gets their money and the consumer gets the music without the hassle of DRM.
As you can imagine Apple was not pleased, and promptly released a required upgrade to iTMS, (Well, required if you want to actually purchase music.) that presumably plugs the hole in the transaction scheme that allows the rogue client to operate. That was yesterday. (2005/3/21)
This is today, and the 'clever folks' have already worked around Apples fix
