No doubt, many models that vendors have chosen suck. But DRM doesn't mean that you have to be restricted in a specific way. It just means that the rights can be managed any way the providers sees fit.

The right thing to do is to simply not buy content from providers who have a boneheaded model. I think the market will work itself out nicely...

>I do think the next few years will determine how the public reacts to widespread DRM. Now that MS and hardware vendors have really bowed to content provider demands. I already have content I can only view in one room of my house or listen to on one device and not another. I am done with that, hopefully the rest of the world is as well.
