[mdlug] O.T. Another Vista horror story

[Clinton V. Weiss]

I've always ripped my music from my CD's I purchase or just downloaded
them from a p2p (and eventually bought the CD).  Or lately I just
listen to a lot of internet radio.  I have *never* bought my music
online.  Because of this behavior, I never truly understood what
people have against DRM, as it has never directly affected me.

After reading this I am very grateful for not buying into DRM'ed
music, and even more grateful that it hasn't affected me.  What a
*expletive* pain in the *expletive* it is just to transfer your own
*expletive* files from one *expletive* computer to another *expletive*
computer.  Of course, the expletives are out of respect for the author
and the hassle he is enduring.  What's sad, is he isn't done yet.
He'll have more computers in the future, and unless he re-purchases
all of his music, he must go through all of this again.

Here's to finally understanding the pain that DRM is, and hoping to
never have to deal with it myself *raises coffee*
