Hmmmm, this move seems somewhat promising, and Christopher Dodd (the current head of the MPAA) made some interesting comments that were quoted in Variety over the weekend:
Quote:
He said Saturday that the industry will need to take a far more nuanced approach to promoting future antipiracy legislation.
"We're going to have to be more subtle and consumer-oriented," he added. "We're on the wrong track if we describe this as thievery."

Interesting, particularly as Dodd previously stated the piracy was no different than theft. Maybe the move from DRM (or at least less restrictive DRM) and Chris Dodd's apparent change of heart signals a shift in culture to a more moderate, more nuanced approach. Or not, I guess we'll see in any event.
