We've just the published latest column on DRM from Cory Doctorow, who - following - continues to take the industry that's selling digital rights management to the media.
This time he says we need to stop falling for the "Potemkin demo" - the perfect and unachieveable world in which DRM is sold to vendors.
The DRM business model is the urinary tract infection of media experiences: all of the uses that used to come in an easy gush now come in a mingy, painful dribble - a few pennies out of your pocket every time you want to watch a show again, hit the pause button, or rewind.
It's timely, given Google's Video decision to stop its DRM-based video sales service (much to the irritation of those who have paid for movies and now lost them).
