gnat writes "Tucked away on the O'Reilly Mac OS X Conference presentations page are links to Quicktime video and mp3 audio recordings of the Digital Rights Management panel featuring Dan Gillmor of the San Jose Mercury News, Cory Doctorow of the EFF, and others. (My apologies for the sometimes shaky video--three Cokes for breakfast is the anti-steadicam)"

Steve Jobs said, ""If you legally acquire music, you need to have the right to manage it on all other devices that you own."

And at the same time, Apple implements a form of DRM by crippling the iPod - you can copy songs onto it, but you can't copy them off. I'm an Apple fan, but this kind of BS undermines my faith in them.
