it says all the thing that have been said before about drm on mp3 and dvd, we don't need new copyright laws... you need to adapt to the realities of mass use...

his main is the MS should develop a player that plays every format with no DRM and be very happy to get the massive amounts of money that will bring in you'll get nowhere with ligation against you're custiomers

a MS employer sayd but if we make all format player like VLC we'll get sued by everyone and he says yes exactly, thats what sony did with the video but you eat anti-trust lawyers for breakfast, copyright lawyers would be nothing...
