[quote Silencio]Are these "thoughts" primarily targeted at the big four labels, or at France and Norway?
No, these words are trying to get France and Norway to target the big four.
If those countries were to try to force Apple to open their DRM in their countries, Apple would be forced to close down their music store to the countries in order to comply with the record labels.
If those countries were to force the record labels to drop the DRM entirely, everyone would win.
Apple seems to be trying to rally their current 'enemies' in an effort to ally against the biggest enemy of all. The ones that imposed the DRM in the first place.
