RIAA Says DRM is Dead

wraith808:
A true sentiment?  Or a disingenuous statement?

The points made are genuine- DRM inconveniences legitimate customers, not those who wouldn't buy in the first place.  But do they really see that now?  And how long before the MPAA and whatever association is over the rights of book distribution follow suit?

Well...

In the wake of the Kindle debacle, now that certain media playback devices seem to be able to delete things without the "owner's" consent, I guess DRM is moot.

Why bother suing when you can just go in and zap anything you don't believe belongs there?
