Tomara que vire moda. Que gente do naipe do David Berlind siga dizendo a mesma coisa:

Is your anti-virus or anti-spyware warning you about the Digital Restrictions Management software on your computer? It should be. DRM is a Trojan horse of the worst kind. Today, with every individual DRM-wrapped piece of content that gets sold, we are securing the futures of the DRM licensors (mostly Apple and Microsoft). That content will forever be useless unless you have something that includes their playback technologies. My advice: Just say no to DRM.

Traduzindo e indo direto ao ponto: não compre músicas (ou qq outro tipo de 'obra') "protegidas", como aquelas vendidas no iTunes e em outros sites que utilizam a "tecnologia" da MS. Prefira CDs usados, ou qq outra mídia que lhe dê o REAL DIREITO de fazer o que quiser com a tal 'obra'. Berlind tocou no ponto: o 'R' do DRM não tem nada a ver com 'rights' (direitos) e sim com RESTRIÇÕES. Estúpidas, desrespeitosas. Uma idéia stalinista (!) tentando se fazer passar por capitalismo moderno.
Quer saber pq vc tb vai odiar essa 'amarra/mordaça'?

update: Sony BMG says it is not trying to prevent consumers from getting music onto iPods. Fans who complain to Sony BMG about iPod incompatibility are directed to a Web site (http://cp.sonybmg.com/xcp) that provides information on how to work around the technology.

The company, which has sold more than 13 million copy-protected discs to date, is urging people who buy copy-protected titles to write to Apple and demand that the company license its FairPlay DRM for use with secure CDs.

...But artists and consumers are bristling at the notion of being caught in the middle of this test of wills.

Artistas e seus fãs são afastados pelas gravadoras e provedores de maravilhas "tecnológicas" ?? Até quando ????
