While I think you raise an interesting point, I'm not sure if your example really works. While a judge lobbying for tougher murder penalties might not be a conflict of interest, it could be evidence of bias in the sentencing of murder defendants. To put it another way, if a judge lobbied for more frequent use of the death penalty, a defendant sentenced to death might reasonably argue that the judge gave the sentence based on personal beliefs and not based on interpretation of the law.
This is a way to reclaim rights. They only person who can crack a song's DRM under this scheme is the person who bought it. That means they've already paid Apple. All people want to do is play their songs on non-Apple players, play them on Linux machines, and other fair uses. There's no reason to get all huffy about it.
...they only described it's structure. The discovery of DNA goes back to at least 1929, possibly earlier (depending on which discovery you're looking for.)
1865 - Gregor Mendel shows that heredity is passed in discreet units
1900 - Three scientists independently verify Mendel's work, and formulate the laws of heredity
1909 - Willhelm Johannsen coins the term gene
1911 - Thomas Hunt Morgan shows that chromosomes contain genes
1929 - Phoebus Levin discovers that genes are made up of nucleotides (i.e., genes are made up of DNA)
1943 - William Astbury obtains first X-ray diffraction pictures of DNA
1951 - Rosalind Franklin's X-ray diffraction images show DNA has two different forms, and that it takes the form of a helix
Apple has pretty good web-based support, although this is probably larger scale than needed for most jobs. However, it is a good way to automate fixes to common problems.

Anyone know of any definite plans for other airlines to introduce this service? I'd love it on my next flight over the Pacific!
