I say no way - I do not want the music industry telling me what I can do with my computer. Keep linux drm free! they can have their drm music and put it where the music doesn't play. I can see the point of drm but not as a business model - it suppose to be used for the user and securing their information - not for some stupid songs so some middle man can get rich quick. |

Try as I might, I can't see the GPL embracing or supporting anything to do with this. |

Linux as it is represents a fairly significant threat to some corporations plans. It's more or less uncontrollable, it's based on sharing and peer review, it's about everyone having access regardless of their financial status.
No wonder then that certain elements would like to see Linux dragged into the same dismal arena of fear, subscription and suspicion that MS occupies. And yes, I agree, absolutely no DRM thankyou. Ever. I've yet to meet someone who thinks that DRM is anything other than a corporate license to control the market. |

To gain acceptance on the desktop, Linux needs DRM like a fish needs a bicycle. |

Teaching a fish to ride a bicycle is simple. Doing so without drowning is the challange. |
