And it's not strictly a court issue, it a bill of law they are trying to pass through the government. And just because something is not illegal does not mean it's not wrong or unfair. Also, how is 80% of all online music sales and the total grip of the personal DAP market not count as a monopoly. Yes, you may say people are stupid to buy from itunes, i certainly would not buy from itunes myself. But many have, and now they are locked to Apple. Is it not the governments job to look after the little people and step in when a company has to much power and is acting very unfairly? After all, 99% of people don't have the knowledge we do. Most people are not geeks like me, they probably have better thing to do lol! Dismissing them as stupid is a little unfair, it's quite normal to not have a deep understanding of DRM and digital audio technology. -- dangerous_dom ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dangerous_dom's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1763 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22423 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
