Uph, read so much and got so many fresh and inspiring ideas.Probably given free will by his creator it was Melkor's choice to turn to "evil"
But don't you find that Melkor is the only one,besides Eru himself, who really
makes any choice?Others seem to accept or follow the Maker's Plan, or their given nature; some are led by fate, chosen or doomed.
Wrote this and decided to quickly look through the book. And what I came across?

And Thou, Melkor, shalt see that no theme may be played that hath not its uttermost source in me, nor can anyone alter the music in my despite. For he that attempteth this shall prove but mine instrument in devising of things more wonderful,whiich he himself hath not imagined

from Ainulindale
So maybe even he wasn't given any choice?
