Hollywood's DRM Agenda Moving Forward

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the get-ready-for-a-shift dept.

risingphoenix writes "The New York Times has a story about the progress Hollywood has made putting Digtal Rights Management in the marketplace. The story focuses on what technology is currently in place; what the next moves, technically and legally, are for the industry and how consumers are being affected by Hollywoods power grab."

    Wish Taco would quote the New York Times more fully when posting about one of their articles.
    NYT demands 'registration' in order even connect
    to their site. This consists of more intrusive
    questions than a CIA job app, and I just KNOW
    that they sell this to every data miner with a
    buck and an overdeveloped urge to procreate.
    Dont like DRM any more than he does, but surely
    this info can be found somewhere else. With all
    the news sources free around the world, NYT's
    old motto: 'all the news thats fit to print'.. .........ain't.
