Congress Ponders Opening up iTunes DRM

hammeredpeon writes "Congress is debating whether or not to require that music shops keep their DRM open for interoperability. Apple wasn't present at the hearings, but Napster's CEO was, arguing that the market should make the decision about interoperability. Considering that previous standards (FireWire/USB, Betamax/VHS) have been decided by the market, could it be that Apple isn't big enough to keep the government out of its industry?"

You actually quote a correct use of "its", then go and fuck up your own "its" by sticking an unwanted apostrophe in there. If you can't even learn by simply copying someone else's correct writing, then clearly there's no hope that even the dimmest slashdotter will ever improve himself.
