Probibly not.
<you have to do it every month?>>
I don't post FUD. I no longer get invovled with conversations on this
list every month. Your being intolerant.
<categories of people, ones who say "hey, maybe I am wrong" and ones who
say "why is everyone else wrong?!?!". >>
No
I base my being right and wrong on the outcome of my projections over time.
The DRM outcomes are real and coming home to roost now.
The Vital Books Viewer at NYU DOES stop students from owning their books.
The likelihood for DRM hardware IS now in it's final planning stages and will
be hitting the market in the coming year.
Congress IS lining up for the crack your box legistlation, with Orin Hatch
now involved in the draft of the new Berman Bill.
DVD's are ALL Locked down today
People HAVE been jailed for watching their own movings and talking about
CSS security.
You Head is in the sand.
> NOBODY IS INTERESTED IN DRM WHERE THE CONSUMER HAS THEIR OWN DAMN ROOT
> KEY.
I am.
And who are YOU? Your a Vendor of Consumer grade hardware? Your lobbying
Congress for allowing this to happen and building DRM chips. How many times
have you worked with Sony and Apple on the specs for DRM harddrives?
Think about yourself a little less and others a little more.
Ruben
