Simon Phipps has a great article on DRM. It’s worth a read.
If people are wondering why people such as Simon, Cory, and myself keep harping on about DRM, then you should consider its impact on gadgets. What major corporations are trying to do is restrict how you use the products you buy. Think Sony’s use […]
