It reminds me some Dilbert comics...

I have traveled across the universe and through the years to find Her.
Sometimes going all the way is just a start...

I'm selling some stuff!

If you don't like DRM then don't buy into it. I'm not buying HD-DVD/Bluray until the format is cracked or if there's an easy way for me to bypass the DRM.

Until then I'll just keep on buying DVD's.

It's the same with music. I don't buy into buying DRM protected lossy music.

If MS didn't protect the content then people would bitch at MS for not supporting it. If they support it people bitch at them for supporting it. At least if they support it the people who want to watch/listen to the content can watch/listen to the content.

Me neither. Unforunately, there are always the average consumers who buy new things just because they're new. Oh, I knew a lot of people who bought DVD merely for "hey, it comes with less disc" reason.

I bought XPpro 6 months ago just for a TV tuner card who doesn't work with 98se and I hate this activation.
I don't know when I get vista (if I buy a laptop next year, mine looks very old ?)
