I did not buy a DVD player until I could DEFEAT the DRM on it.
I DO NOT RECOGNIZE DRM AS LEGAL AND WILL NOT ACCEPT IT. - supermanred, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4Another "itunes killer"? This makes no sense, seeing as drm-free media is what Jobs wants to sell on iTunes ideally.
If everything is locked down by heavy DRM, we will turn to stripping it and distributing it and sharing it on Piratebay and sites like piratebay.
