A great demonstration of why DRM belongs in corporate environments, but not
in consumer content.

What's to think of a "theft protection" system that:
(a) doesn't protect against people doing "bit-for-bit" or physical copies,
as the pirates do
(b) puts honest consumers in the situation of either having to make a copy
against the content providers' wishes, or having to go without the content
that they've purchased (I notice that it doesn't cost less to get content
that you can't use as easily).

DRM is not (nor can it be) about protecting against theft, it's about
limiting the use of the content /by the _legitimate_ user/.

Alun.
