ob.blog on DRM
Chris has posted a good article on DRM. Instead of pontificating about it on my own I’m just going to point you to it…please go read: ob.blog: DRM and you: this is important
Practically-speaking DRM is a concerted, aggressive attempt to prevent you from watching and listening to all the media you’ve rightfully purchased in the manner you want to enjoy it. In other words: no matter how much you pay for that DVD, DRM ensures that the media companies own it anyway and you’re just renting it. Its a concerted, aggressive attempt to steal your property from you.
