Ofcom Does the Right Thing on the BBC's DRM
,----[ Quote ]
| A couple of months ago, I wrote a post
| about the BBC being under pressure to add a
| form of DRM to its HD service. I included a
| copy of a letter I wrote to Ofcom, noting
| that I had only found out about this sneaky
| move at the last minute, and that comments
| had to be submitted immediately.

We Know Hollywood Is This Dumb. Et Tu, Netflix?
,----[ Quote ]
| Back in August, we wrote about the
| Hollywood movie studios conspiring to keep
| new release DVDs away from services like
| Netflix and Redbox for as many as 30 days
| after their release. The idea behind this
| from Hollywoodâs perspective is simple: If
| people canât rent movies right away,
| theyâll buy more. Sorry, did I say the idea
| was âsimpleâ? I meant, âidioticâ.

Buyers Who Purchased Modern Warfare 2 Via Steam Discover DRM Puts Them 2 Days Behind Everyone Else
,----[ Quote ]
| When talking about video games, we
| sometimes hear that Valve's Steam is one of
| the few examples of "DRM that works," but
| that's hard to accept when you hear
| ridiculous stories like this one.

Lulu introduces DRM
,----[ Quote ]
| I'm inclined to think that at the very least, I
| shouldn't publish with Lulu again; and,
| probably, I should also withdraw my existing
| publications from their system and find some
| other print-on-demand outfit. Is that an
| overreaction?
