DRM technology--anti-piracy tool, or market monopoly tool?

So, Sony's more interested in snubbing Apple out of the music business than they are in keeping their customers satisfied, listening ot what bands on their own labels say to do with their own music, or even copy-protecting the CDs anymore. That's right--it's more important to Sony that you not use Itunes than it is to them for you to fileshare their discs. Way to go, Sony. Again, just fantastic work, way to completely shoot your stupid self in the foot. Remind me to never buy a PS3, one of your DVD players, any of your (bad) minidisc players, laptops (which are even worse), TVs, and I think I'll just boycott the entire super audio CD format and go exclusively DVD-audio for good measure. Sorry, Pink Floyd.

Sony is very confused. They are being run by a bunch of High School Drop-Outs. LMAO     I wouldnt be surprised if Sony went belly up. I know about 1,000 people that had to send their PS2s back due to technical problems. They need to get their heads out of their you know whats.
