I've been around for a while now let me see...
I have 45s and 33s in vinyl, I have 8 tracks, cassettes, of course CDs, a couple of 12" laser discs, newer audio quality vinyl. They now want to put music on blue ray ? CDs are doomed...
Then 5 1/4" floppies, 3 1/2" disquettes, streaming data tape, I forgot old magnetic tape but I don't have the machine for that anymore. And then a 5 megabyte hard disk...I mean boxfuls of junk now, only in the past thirty years!
And I have'nt even approached movies.
If I had had to ask my DRM supplier to transfer to the next format... hed'...well he'll tell you when you try!
Do you remember the people stranded with the older e-book readers with DRM'd books ?
There is a question I have about to which I have no answer. Is there a time frame or limit on DRM'd content ?
I'll buy DRM when h..l freezes over.(the way the planet is deteriorating it might be soon)
