I don't have an iPod since it wouldn't play most of my music (99% of my songs are Ogg Vorbis format) but regardless of the player, I would NEVER buy any music online that is restricted by DRM. That stands for digital rights management and it is basically a policy that restricts where you can play the music you paid for. Apple is especially draconian in this regard; music bought from ITMS can only be played on iTunes/iPods. They don't license their DRM to any other device manufacturers, so you are essentially locked in to the iPod line for as long as you want to listen to your music.
Of course, there's no reason that you *have* to listen to DRM music on your iPod. As you mentioned, ripping your own CDs is a much safer long term approach, IMHO.
