Her rhetoric in the early graphs is kind ewww, but the modest proposal is completly brilliant - and especially appealing to people like me who've got the collector urge but aren't willing to pay big prices for out-of-print stuff

i read this a month or so ago and salute her for managing to capture most of my own thoughts on the issue

the debate will take ridiculous new twists as Microsoft hammer home their WMP9 technology and futile encryption procedures from CD manufacturers that permit you from listening to cds on a PC etc.

The scary thing about WMP9 isn't the encryption...its that its a prototype for software designed to run on Palladium hardware.
Palladium is what will anally rape all the music lovers.

Can we trust Microsoft's Palladium?

TCPA / Palladium Frequently Asked Questions
Microsofts Big Secret - Paladium (article originally published on MSNBC and then MS ordered the article pulled from the website)

I say this is the place we draw the line in the sand.
