DRM in music

March 19, 2005 by paul

I’ve been reading a bit about the future of the music industry (there’s an excellent interview with the founder of the online music label Magnatune here), and I have to agree that digital rights management, even as liberal as Apple’s music store is, just isn’t worth paying good money for. This quote (which I read on Slashdot) sums up the ridiculousness of the studios insisting on encumbering their product with anti-copy technology:

Complaining that hacking hurts the entertainment industry is like complaining that gravity hurts the airline industry.
