Update: This question of control versus use is not, by the way, merely a DRM issue. Another audio program I listened to over the weekend, on a long hike, was a talk by Marsh McCall, a classics professor at Stanford. It's at itunes.stanford.edu, an Apple/Stanford joint project that's making selected talks available for download. I'd like to link you directly to that freely-available talk, and also provide a link-addressable soundbite, but I can't. These audio programs aren't part of the web, they belong to a parallel mini-universe in which the only acceptable client is iTunes and the only acceptable player device is the iPod.
