First, as you said, it could jack up the price of the devices themselves. How much does Universal think a year of unlimited music (which you later keep) is worth? It could hurt Nokia if they're priced out of the market of Sony-Ericsson or, say, the iPhone. Also, there's the question of dissatisfaction.

And since it's protected WMA, heaven forbid if you decide to switch to Linux, the Mac, or even just a phone that doesn't use WMA. I’m not a big fan of the business model myself.
