WOW, pretty sad that the record companies have to go that far just to “protect” their material.

Interesting to note that alot of artists don’t agree with what they are doing.

If anything is gonna stop me from buying CD’s is this rubbish. Although I hate the whole downloading albums thing. I like to have the real thing in my hand.

The thing about this that bothers me is this “program” can also be used to cheat at games, hack systems and so on down the line.

I don’t have much on my computer beyond mp3s, a couple of games (those came with Windows), some vids and movies... but I don’t want some dirt bag scampering through my hard drive and messing everything up.
