Hasn't MS done the same with MSN passport, where you use one login for Hotmail, MSN Messenger, XBox Live and various other services?
MS doesn't collect user data like Google does. In fact, with Microsoft you *always* have to *opt-in* for even anonymous data collection. If you care about privacy, Microsoft is much better choice than Google.
Of course there are more people enjoying crappy movies than those standing for their rights. It's the 21st century. None of the people in the US of A have known war on their soil, have known hunger and a great repression, none have known a repressing regime. So they don't know.
And apparently you're one of them.
I could live my life without watching anything HOLLYWOOD produces. I don't, but I will NEVER use any platform that endorses DRM *ever*
Because I want to be the master of what I watch, not someone else.
And last, DRM are just forcing people to use piracy, nothing else. It's been that way since the beginning of DRM and it will not stop. DRM enables piracy because DRM is doomed to begin with - since it's ultimate goal is to prevent people from watching the very thing they're trying to watch through DRM!!! When will they learn?
So you're basically saying that you're so much more intelligent than anyone else and they're stupid? That's really wise and social. Oh, I'm sure you're so much better than anyone else.
In Finland downloading was legal and uploading was illegal before something like 2003-2004. As the problem got out hand they changed both to be illegal. And how do I know? Because I'm Finnish. This is same for many other European countries.
