Question of the day: iTunes + Watermarking?

So my question of the day is this. If two different people buy the same
song from iTunes, and then both of them burn it to CD, and then both of
them rip it into a 44K raw file (say, a .wav), is it different?

Apple seems very blase about the ability of consumers to break their
copy protection this way, and I don't believe it's because burning to
CD's takes time and energy. I believe it's because they can track down
large violations on super-distribution systems (kazaa, etc) to individuals.

Of course, I could be wrong. Someone would have to do the test and find out.
