[...] Zell would do well to look at the music industry as an example of how not to handle alarming change in your industry. Mark Shuttleworth published a very insightful piece that does the best job I have ever seen of assessing the issues at hand in the content business. “Someone will find a business model that doesn’t depend on the old way of thinking, and if it is not you, then they will eat you alive. You will probably sue them, but this will be nothing but a defensive action as the industry reforms around their new business model, without you. And by the industry I don’t mean your competitors – they will likely be in the same hole – but your suppliers and your customers. The distributors of content are the ones at risk here, not the creators or the consumers.” [...]

[...] May 14th, 2007 Came across this article where Mark Shuttleworth had written about DRM – “There are some ideas that are broken, but attractive enough to some people that they are doomed to be tried again and again”. DRM also known as Digital Restrictions Management (to the opponents of DRM), is a doomed piece of technology brought into the distribution of entertainment in digital formats. When I first heard of DRM, my question was – “If I buy the bloody song, then how is it that I do not own it? How is it that I cannot transfer it from my MP3 player to my computer or elsewhere?”. When I read that I still do not own the damned piece of music, this made me more intrigued about DRM. I read up on artistes (who actually created the damned music in the first place) mention that the digital format of selling music has pretty much left them high and dry. They do not still make much money from the distribution of the music. Many of them do not like such restrictions on their music!. Then why – just cause some major music labels think its right to restrict the way we listen to our music?. [...]

[...] Enfin, le patron d’Ubuntu expose dans son blog pourquoi le modèle des DRM est irrémédiablement ancré dans le passé et qu’il ne résistera pas à l’épreuve du temps. Notamment, les antivols et ce pour des raisons techniques nécessitent d’être lus localement; les logiciels de lecture pourront toujours être cassés, et les clés découvertes par d’astucieux informaticiens. EMI et Apple ont déjà pris conscience de l’inanité des DRM, et ont décidé de revenir dessus. Tout comme la FNAC en France, qui limitait le nombre de copies des morceaux téléchargés sur leur plateforme. Pour l’ancien astronaute sud-africain, les DRM sont hérités d’anciennes réalités économiques, et il préférerait voir les entreprises actuelles s’adapter à l’univers numérique plutôt que de les observer passer leur temps à réfléchir comment l’empêcher d’aller de l’avant.

I hope so, too. Thanks. And thanks for giving me some of the tools I will need to make it through that transition.
