Soon linux will support DRM. What will you do then?
noob:
If Linux supports DRM, I hope it isn't forced. I may not want to go and buy a digital monitor just to watch DVD's on my PC. As I am hoping to start a business based on Linux media systems, I don't want the extra work of DRM to sort out.
H_TeXMeX_H:
They have to crack DRM ... that's the only plausible solution :thumbup:

My point still stands.
I'm not sure in what ways DRM would/will be supported on a free operating system. Anything that's supposed to go into the kernel, anyhow, I can compile without very easily. There are tonnes of free media players. If all the developers lose their heads and try and enforce DRM, I can fork their programs.
Aloone_Jonez:
Back on topic.
Command line OSes are obsolete (as far as most applications are concerned), but the command line isn't many tasks are faster because you can use wildcards and it's faster to type than use the mouse.
Just a thought but most modern GUI file managers are shit in one respect, they don't allow you to use a wildcard filter, does anyone know of any that do?
