So well they're (HBO) now trying to replace DRM with DCE.
IIRC, this new acronym stands for:
Digital Consumer Enablement
But it's just DRM with another name, since we've achieved one great
thing: people now see DRM and they know it's not for their own good.
This new name is much more dangerous since it's appealing. I propose to
replace it with:
Digital Consumer Encarceration
Or maybe some better words, but hey, this is my first thought... :)

And now there's DCE as well!
