So you think that DRM actually _works_ for its (supposedly) intended purpose, and prevents criminals from copying content? You think that it _won't_ end up just making life hard for the honest consumer and the developers who would like to build systems around the platform (incorporating support into other devices, etc.) -- while doing almost nothing to prevent the real copyright infringement? Or do you accept the obvious facts, but still believe that the BBC should pander to the people who ask for DRM, despite the fact that the BBC have to _know_ it's just snake oil, and are being very disingenuous if they're offering it as a solution to the alleged problem. -- dwmw2 - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
