Because some people have been pirating Eminem's latest song, the RIAA wants to add restrictions to my computer.
Because some TV execs are worried about their bottomline being lost by commercial cutters (hint to the execs: more intelligent, interesting shows would help), a friend in the media industry will release a product that may kill off a less industry-slave product. With these kinds of things happening, what have ABC, Fox, NBC, CBS, et ali. done for me? The Simpsons is it.
I wonder why so many consumers (what a word, it's as if we exist to consume what the corporations put in our troughs!) put up with restrictive, inferior products.

Just a point of fact:
Zealand (Sjælland) is the island in Denmark where Copenhagen (København) is located.
