The case seems pretty clear cut in Apple's favor.
When you purchased the song, you have the right to burn the song. And from there on, it seems like it's up in the air what you can do with it. I'm sure Apple anticipated some people to rip the purchased songs that they burned, and to distribute it. But I'm sure Apple also anticipated that the extra work would veer most people away from doing it. That's why then included the clause that said what you can't do, which is to circumvent the DRM. The PlayFair group clearly violated the terms, and if they continue to hop countries to support their open source project, a lawsuit will be dropped on them promptly.
