Whilst I think that these companies make far too much money (the record and film companies) I also believe it is their right to charge whatever they want for what are luxury items. That it annoys consumers and possibly drives them to pirate is par for the course, and there are those that will pirate even if prices drop.
This information, once obtained, was never, ever going to stay secret - internet or not. I don't think there should be any fuss about who is hosting the info, now it's out it's out. We'll just have to see what the big companies have to say about it all. Something pigheaded no doubt.

I don't generally have a problem with copyright laws, but DRM technology is invidious and pointless. DRM being circumvented like this can only be a good thing for the consumer in the long term.

They need to shake the image of a coked-up flabby dingus with a pony tail whinging that he can't afford that new cock-and-balls shaped swimming pool before I'll give a shit about anything major-label execs say.

Red/Blue Movies? What are those?
Re topic: So, the actual discussion (now) is on the basis of DRM - not about the event of the behaviour of internet societies? I actually was interested in the latter...

....and what is the relevance of this Horsey comic?
Anyway, yeah, I was just about to start reading Digg, but if the mighty GBM thinks it's shit, I'll believe it.

I really really tried to like digg, but then I realized that navigating through it was like going back to high school. This is the most informed and entertained I've ever felt visiting digg.com.
Also, Kevin's decision to 'go down fighting' appears to only have been made after he realized that he had no choice to do so. The aftermath of the 'rebellion' would likely result in the obsolesence of Digg as users left in droves, leaving the door wide open for a successor. A business decision, fair enough.
