The only - but major - caveat to this is that your iTunes download is compressed in a lossy format. If you burn it to CD, you have music at the same quality as your original iTunes download - i.e. less than CD quality but, to my ears at least, generally not too bad.
If you rip it again, you can either do it lossless and use a lot of disk space or lossy (AAC/mp3/whatever) and take a second quality hit. So you do have DRM-free music but it's either very large or lower quality than the music you bought.
