If I download my CC'd music via iTunes to my iPod, it will add DRM to lock the tune to that iPod. This seems to breach the part of 4a that says:
"You may not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work with any technological measures that control access or use of the Work in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this License Agreement."
this term applies to licensee, not licensor, who can do whatever he/she wants with a work.
this is also not new to the 2.0 license. was in the 1.0 license.
