Microsoft Patents Method for Bringing "Pirated" Music Back onto the Reservation

,----[ Quote ]
| I hear Motorola -- having been somewhat burned by Apple releasing its own 
| phone rather than continuing to license iTunes for Motorola's handsets -- is 
| switching their phones over to a Linux operating system.  And the 
| Linux-powered OpenMoko Neo 1973 phone has already been released.  It's 
| possible that users will gravitate towards phones that give them as much 
| freedom as their computers do, but on the other hands, Hollywood and the 
| labels are likely to pounce on technology that would bring offline P2P 
| trading to portables.
