Digital Rights Management

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

To all listening out there and belong to the movie/music industry: DROP THE DAMN DRM AND FIND SOMETHING BETTER…

No, it is not the day that I lose my mind. I recently read about the new protections that will be imposed on all mediums in a local magazine.

For God’s sake people, you do not respet our hardware and you think that we will respect your Intellectual Property (IP) (and I’m referring to Sony’s DRM/rootkit/whatever)?

Maybe it’s about time developing new solutions and services that people will pay for using them, not because they ought to, but because they want to? Damn you managers for treating every user as a possible thief…

Those that want to steal IP know how to do this and can easily overcome ANY DRM you might use… So, why do you make the legitimate user’s life difficult?

Maybe it is the time to see open-IP (free as in speech).

Oh, and read this

Merry Christmas
