FairUse4WM Breaks Windows DRM
An anonymous reader writes "FairUse4WM, according to engadget, "can be used to strip Windows Media DRM 10 and 11". What does the slashdot community think of this development in the ongoing cat-and-mouse game going on between big media and what is available online?"
anything locked by windows DRM is not useable on anything else. so it's a good think to crack that crystal cage. data wants to be freely used, not enslaved to only brand X equipment.
if this is supposed to be a new economy, how come they still want my old fashioned money?
At last, a person who understands the argument... You don't like DRM, you don't like the iTunes store, so you don't buy from there...
Why is that concept so difficult to understand for so many people? Is Vertinox some sort of genius that is gifted beyond the abilities of the rest of the people on Slashdot?
Or maybe it is because many Slashdotters are so childishly selfish that all they see is that something stands between them and something they want, causing them to react with an angry tantrum...
Slashdot, where you get modded down as redundant for stating an opposing viewpoint... Independent thought anyone?
