Coincidence? I won't derail into a conspiracy rant, but I will point to my January 3rd, 2008 posting on Warner's move to unprotected MP3 content, followed days later by the declaration that DRM is dead as the global citizens march towards a world of open systems.

Instead of DRM we need CRM, Consumer Rights Management. I think this Amazon 1984 thing is a great opportunity to once again try to get some more attention to this really big problem. The rights owners are getting way too much power just because most people don't understand the issues. Another example was the French law that allowed them to cut your connection to the internet (to the outside world if you will) just because somebody thinks you downloaded illegal copies of something. It's a little like saying that because somebody in the apartment did something, the whole family should go to jail. For some reason digital rights holders can get laws and practices accepted that would never be OK in other parts of democratic societies. A very dangerous trend and it's important to fight these Amazon 1984 type actions even if they might seem like not a big deal for most people. Great stuff.
