When Would You Accept DRM?

twigles asks: "Following on the heels of Apple closing DVD Jon's end run around its DRM and a British TV station offering DRM'd downloads it seems fair to ask, what DRM would you accept as a consumer? Personally, I take the view that if a song, movie, book, etc. is DRM'd then it isn't truly mine. On the other hand, if a particular piece of digital media is priced correctly (a la' rental fee) would that be satisfactory, or do you feel that DRM in any form is ridiculous?"

    The only DRM that I would accept is one that I had full controll over, nothing less. I mean, I do own the computer it runs on, don't I? Maybe I should change 'them' to run their stinkin DRM on MY system.
