How DRM Makes Vista Worse

Filed under: Windows, Life

According to Forbes security article a lot of the weakness of Vista is in the Digital Rights Management that is a non-negotiable part of the package. A Shame.

Meanwhile, it looks like neither Vista nor the Zune are doing well. We’re told that we expected too much from it. I didn’t expect too much. I think it’s the cost of upgrades and the wealth of good alternatives. This is a different situation than when 95 came out with great uptake, and when the XP release parties happened.
