  4. What if... on Welcome to the Future of DRM Media · · Score: 1

    Here's my concern I haven't seen it raised here yet. In order for you top watch said movie he had to get a new license every five days. This means that if for whatever reason they decide that they don't want to show the movie any more they just stop giving out licenses.

    This makes me think about 1984 and how much easier it would me to change history if everything was digital and needed a license to view it.

    I will tug on the Liberals ears here a little.

    Imagine if the only way to purchase Fahrenheit 911 was via a DRM protected media. Now say the Conservative portion of the government stays in power. they do not want anything "bad" to be said about the man who "Lead To Victory Over Evil" (or whatever happened.

    Someone would just purchase the rights to the movie and turn off the license. Poof... no More Movie.

    That's just scary.

    I would only consider Kia an underdog of all those you mentioned. Maybe Honda. Lexus and Scion are both part of Toyta and Geo and Saturn are part of GM

    But I capitalized the "I" that's gotta count for something. I know the difference - my question is why is that the only one with that difference?

    I can see the other pronouns because you actually change the spelling of the word to make it possessive. How many other words do you keep the original spelling of the word and not add an apostrophe to make it possessive?

    PlaneShift the FOSSMMORPG (...phew...) is about to finally release It's new prerelease, Molecular Blue. They Have shut down the old servers and started the migration for everyone who played the old one. This new release will include fighting, magic, quests, etc.

    I think this could be a nice example of OSS gaming.
