And so the DRM debate rages on. Nazi DRM is a blight on the music industry and it's completely unfair to the consumer.
You can't blame Slim Devices, only Apple, Microsoft and the naive consumers who continue to buy music from them for whatever reason. But the tide is turning. DRM won't go away any time soon, but the way it's heavy-handedly implemented WILL change. It will have too, there is already much talk in the mainstream press regarding the lower than expected number of iPod owners who actually buy from iTunes. Jo Public is finally starting to get a grip of what's happening here. My only advice for people who have bought music from iTunes, without realising that Apple are trying to make sure that you will forever be locked into buying Apple devices to play your investment, is to use myFairTunes6 or one of the other tools to remove the DRM for your iTunes tracks. Then start voting with your wallet. -- autopilot *SlimServer Version:* 6.5 - Windows XP. *Amp:* Cambridge Audio 640a (living room) / Denon MD30 (bedroom). *Speakers:* Mission 701's (living room) / Kef Cresta 1's (bedroom). *Remote:* T-Mobile MDA Vario / Sony PSP / Harmony 525 (IR). *Clients:* 1 Squeezebox3 + Softsqueeze. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ autopilot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1763 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29626 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
