DRM

Music download & piracy have been in the sphere for quite some time now.  It causes lots of people to get what they want (easily) – music for free thus making it impossible for music companies to (supposedly) make the amount of cash they want to.

Rob, from his viewpoint south in Spain, explains DRM - Digital Rights Management in detail in a series of posts.

Not only are they right on the point, true to Robs style, but they are also interesting and brings forward information about the challenges for both end-users, clients, the provider / owner and the industry as a whole.

I suggest you read them. I found them really helpful myself.
