U.K. Group Wants DRM'd Media Labeled

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the like-with-toxic-substances dept.

peterfa writes "The BBC reports that the U.K. 'All Party Parliamentary Internet Group' wants companies to label their DRMed products. Consumers will see a label on the product before they buy. The label will spell out clearly just how easy it is to copy media, and what they can and cannot do. This is in response to Sony BMG and their virus-like DRM. The group claims the industry is turning media into a rent system, rather than a purchase system."

    I agree the sans serif of the none simple mode looks much better, but I do quite like the colour sceme

    Also, I don't know about you, but I never see "CD's" above the music section.

    I should hope not. Poor little apostrophe.
