DRM free MP3's make the difference if I was to use ovi music or not. Now it's the natural choice. I only "purchased" the free nokia music songs from the store, and ripped the drm. But I just could not spend any money on DRM infested music. But this means of course that Amazon is getting less of my business now...

I would expect people to use the T9 alphanumeric keyboard, the same as I do on my 5800. I find it much faster than using the qwerty input and with the smaller screen it's only going to be more difficult on the 5250.
T9 alphanumeric input is great!

This might seem strange but I use Spotify premium and if I find good new tunes I buy the CD of somewhere like Play.com. For me nothing beats the physical CD playing through my �2000 hifi at the bottom of the bed, speakers angled in just right for stereo when lying in bed.
