RE: [microsound] The Pitfalls of DRM in 60 seconds

[Eloy Anzola <eloy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Aleks,

DRM files ARE proprietary media.

iTunes, for example, does stop you from burning a particular track to CD
after 10 burns.

To stay with iTunes, Led Zeppelin is a fantastic example. They can't be
bought throught the iTunes store.

All of what you describe happens now.

That is the point of the video.

cheers,

Eloy

But it is a competitive market place?  Someone would come along to offer
what the other didnt.

I really only had a problem with the example.  It think its poor, or i do
not understand it?  What stops you from burning an mp3 to cd, or any media
for that matter?  To using the mp3 in whatever player you choose? 
  Are they saying that DRM will eventually lead to proprietary media?  
You can only listen to Old Led Zeppelin albums on so and so media player
because of some conglomorate who owns the music rights as well as the
technology/media to distribute it with packages it in such a way to the
public for consumption?  That is rather distressing, and i think it would
have been a better example.
