Isn't great we live in a world where doctors have to move to different states or stop practicing altogether and now schools are afraid of liability issues with recess! Punitive damages and personal liablity suits as a whole have gotten beyond out of control. Good luck getting that tort reform bill through congress, maybe if they tack it onto a defense/homeland/national/whatever they are callin it these days/ security bill. Thank god for lawyers....I can't wait for whats next.
The baby boomers are in their last season of power. This generation matured without the wired world that has become an essential part of our entire lives. Consequently, they are slower to adopt technologies that come natural to gen-x tech natives. As the older generation passes the torch; politicians, corporate leaders, etc. will instinctively become more tech savvy.
So a key needs to be installed before a CD can be read. How will this solve any copy protection issues once it is "unlocked"? Despite the probable DRM; a way will be found to somehow copy the data. The only purpose it will serve is an extra hassle to the average consumer and yet another reason to download illegally.
