Interesting articles about DRM on Engadget.com
There's a couple of interesting articles about DRM on Engadget.com. The first :'DRM: The state of disrepair' mentions a few of the various views voiced since Steve Jobs' 'Thoughts on Music' post on Apple.com. A really interesting part is a table showing the state of DRM on various physical and digital media.
The second article: 'Microsoft announces another new DRM: PlayReady' is about a new DRM scheme introduced by Microsoft which is intended for the mobile device market. It's intended to bring DRM capabilities not just for their own formats but for other codecs as well such as H.264 or AAC.
So much for Bill Gates' perspective that DRM has "huge problems"!

hey rick,
it seems that your blog is now proudly sponsored by drm vendors. i don't know why, but i found it slightly amusing if not ironic.
a nice series of posts btw.
