"There is not, and never has been, a form of DRM that effectively prevents piracy -- but every single form of DRM reduces the value of the product to legitimate subscribers. It's pretty bizarre to continually punish the only people who aren't engaged in the behavior you want to stamp out." -- Leigh Beadon, 2012-04-19 (thanks to theweaselking for linking to the article)

[Note to folks who came here via the fake-cut-tag I used on LiveJournal: yeah, I know the intended expansion of "DRM" has the 'R' stand for "rights", but the whole point of DRM as implemented everywhere is, after all, restrictions, and those restrictions are often set up specifically to interfere with a consumer's rights.]
