    Apple has used open firmware since the G3. And according to your analogy, just because Macs and PCs both have PCI, the PCI cards are not interchangable, which would be completely false.

  21. Linux Compatibility on Recording Industry Hopes To Hinder CD Burning · · Score: 1

    There are two ways that they could go about controlling the CD burning.
    1. They use some software that uses autorun and installs upon the first install of the disc.

    Less intrusive, can be bypassed by the windows shift key, and would not have any effect on Open Source OSes like Linux.

    2. They encrypt the music and require a plugin to be installed to listen to the music.

    Very intrusive, wouldn't be compatible with Open Source OSes or any currently available CD players which would create an uproar of unsatisfied customers.

    Either way, the software would only be effective with windows computers and would still be able to be bypassed, either through the windows shift key or some DeDRMS type decryption program. In the en,d, the RIAA will fail.
