Yahoo Exec Says "Enough DRM"
bogess writes "Yahoo! Music General Manager Ian Rogers recently gave a speech to some music executives about the future of the Internet music business and promised his company will not be involved in Digital Rights Management anymore." Another straw in the wind: Nine Inch Nails has now followed Radiohead in ridding themselves of the labels and going independent.
The majority of people don't think of it as stealing. You idiots who do have obviously never been stolen from.
How we know is more important than what we know.
If it weren't for the labels, you wouldn't know who Nine Inch Nails and/or Radiohead was.
For all the bullshit that the RIAA & MPAA spew, the trolls and losers beat 'em by a factor of ten.
All the grownups know that most of the anti-DRM garbage is just an indrect way of bitchin' about the labels making it harder for you to steal their crap.
Aaaah. I thought he meant quality of the music itself, rather then the quality of the music file.
Although its interesting to see people say how they demand DRM-less music (all the while pirate mp3s) and then demand DRM-less music in a high quality file format (all the while pirating mp3s). I'm guessing some people just want an excuse to pirate and will never be happy.
Using openSUSE instead of Windows since 9th of October, 2007 and liking it.
