I'm sorry I don't really recall anything in those articles that particularly supported your arguments! There was this though from an independent artist getting free publicity that very specifically flies in the face of your arguments!: "By all means pirate the latest corporate spew from major label central. But don't pretend it's the same thing as copying this, because one day, when we're all gone and all that's left is two or three giant multinational conglomerates putting out lowest-common-denominator bollocks, you'll wish you hadn't." Clearly, this is a band that prefers a distribution system that involves hundreds or thousands of operating companies, who obviously are not going to be able to implement any sort of DRM system that relies on every single company/artist/label agreeing to a hardware standard that limits fair use! If the big labels want to go ahead and try to implement a hypothetical DRM that requires everybody to buy new hardware, let them go ahead and try! I think they'll quickly find that they're losing all their business to the competition that provides non-DRM music. And then they'll start to lose their artists too...... -- nicketynick Wireless SB3, Denon DRA-F101, Mission M31 loudspeakers WinXP SP2 Slimserver, SMC WBR14g router http://www.last.fm/user/nicketynick/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicketynick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1511 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34928 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
