Have fun fighting BUGS in the DRM. I can see it now. You try to watch something you legally paid for on a device you legally own and get an error message. To watch it you'll need to: 1. Do a Google search to find out what that error message means. 2. Go to the device's manufacturer and download a new firmware patch and drivers. 3. Install new drivers and reboot. 4. Run Windows update. 5. Reboot. 6. Do a virus scan. 7. Rotate the monitor so it faces North 8. Wiggle the candy dish. 9. Do the hokey pokey and turn yourself around. No thanks, I'll just wait for the DRM free version of video. I had a nightmare situation with the .WMA DRM, and this was a LEGAL download. I'll NEVER trust it again. “… it’ll presumably only be to ones that support Microsoft DRM,” for which read, “almost everything but the iPod,” adds McCracken.”
