Correct me if I'm wrong, but this means that the industry would be locking in their products into a format which the public is going to hate---because of new protection schemes. Who is gonna want to buy disabled media? Warez is the perverbial cheese in the mouse trap.

Yes it means just that, hopefully ppl will not want this and it'll fall on its face just like the article suggests.

I agree that no intelligent person would ever actually want somthing like this.  They can do more with what they have now.  All this new tech will do it put like a watchdog on peoples computers.  The user gains nothing and the Pigopolists gain power over them.  No one in their right mind would ever want this kind of thing, someone would have to be really really stupid to get it.

Unfortunately, most people are not very intelligent.  People trust Microsoft.  The same thing as above could be said of Windoze XP.  The are gonna see the advertizements for the new crap, listen to M$ shit on about how it has all kinds of new security features and about all kinds of other stuff that the general public dosn't really understand and they are gonna not just want, but need this new system that really does nothing but fuck them.  

Just like they flocked to XP, they want the new brightly advertized product and are willing to shell out mundo cash for it even though it actually sucks ass.  M$ knows this.  So does the RIAA.  Until people become aware and start making intelligent choices, M$ and RIAA will have them in their hands.
