[QUOTE="ziphnor, post: 111667, member: 14215"] But the photo-copier doesnt try to read a license from the paper and complain that you are not allowed to make a copy! Such confusion would be great, consumers would start wondering why everything is so damn complicated, and they might even realize that DRM is to blame, especially if Microsoft point the finger at big media companies and indicate that they are the cause of the mess. As indicated above, i would prefer massive confusion so people would realize just how annoying DRM is. In regards to the technology i wonder why watermarking is not more widespread, it discourages piracy without limiting the customers use of the product. I have bought some watermarked MP3 files, and its the only form of DRM i find acceptable. Have you followed the DRM debate recently? DRM on music is being challenged on several fronts and there have been alot of rumors about big music companies planning to give up on DRM exactly because its causing so many problems. [/QUOTE]
