DRM Link

Posted on Fri 22 September 2006 by alex in geek

Another good piece on some of the brain dead DRM implementation in Microsoft's new Zune media player. Bill expands on the wider implications of DRM on the public domain. What? You thought DRM would only be applied to big media's own licenced content? Of course any player that can play unencumbered media is a potential piracy tool which is why we have to resit laws that make DRM compulsory. It's interesting the Creative Commons people are working out what anti-DRM clauses they may need to add to the next revision of the CC licenses.
