		<description>MLB Rips Off Everyone Who Bought Games Under Their &quot;Old&quot; DRM

http://www.boingboing.net/2007/11/07/mlb-rips-off-fans-wh.html

Allan Wood (a baseball megafan who has written a book about Babe Ruth) purchased over $280 worth of digital downloads of baseball games from Major League Baseball, who have just turned off their DRM server, leaving him with no way to watch his videos. MLB&#039;s position is that since these videos were &quot;one time sales,&quot; and that means that Wood and everyone else who gave money to MLB is out of luck -- they&#039;ll never be able to watch their videos again,.

MLB shut down the DRM server because they&#039;ve changed suppliers, and now they expect suckers to buy downloads of games in the new DRM format. Anyone who does this needs their head examined -- using DRM itself is contemptible enough, but using DRM this way is just plain criminal.</description>
