DRM From the Viewpoint of the Electronic Industry

Posted by michael on from the no-selling-points dept.

mike449 writes "The cover story of the Oct.16 issue of EDN magazine is about the recent trends in DRM. It is not just a technical article. The author tries to convey what people who are supposed to design and implement access restriction measures think about their feasibility and associated economic, legal and moral issues. 'Of course, you can always try charging a reasonable price and trusting people to be honest. Just think of all the money you'll save not having to implement DRM'."

    You need the dongle to access content, and you can tie only one dongle to any particular content, a fairly limiting prospect.

    and would love to use it to access Hilary Rosen's content.
