Interesting: The Battle for Content Ownership Continues

Just buy an HDCP compatible video card? Are you sure? Check out this article at BoingBoing.

The content does not drive the market, the demand does and consumers will eventually demand access to the content they purchase. So DRM will eventually die. I have no doubt consumers will lose a few rounds before that happens, but as a friend recently said "The publishers are dragged, every time kicking and screaming, to the money tree."
