Drm quotes:

Most DRM solutions diminish the value of the product by either directly restricting a customer's use or by creating uncertainty. -- Gabe Newell
... the Kindle is a "roach motel" device: its license terms and DRM ensure that books can check in, but they can't check out. -- Cory Doctorow
It's abundantly clear by now that no DRM system can stop serious pirates. A DRM system that stops serious pirates, and simultaneously gives broad leeway to ordinary users, is even harder to imagine. -- Edward Felten
I'm not a lawyer I'm a kind of mouthpiece/activist type, though occasionally they shave me and stuff me into my Bar Mitzvah suit and send me to a standards body or the UN to stir up trouble. I spend about three weeks a month on the road doing completely weird stuff like going to Microsoft to talk about DRM. -- Cory Doctorow
I believe that online paid content hasn't worked for general circulation newspapers because consumers weren't ready for it, because the implementation did not deliver enough value, because content was typically the same as in the print version, and because much of the material was being syndicted by the papers to other publishers or was not protected with DRM technologies to exclude use by others. -- Robert G. Picard
