I think this might slow down downloading until we find a way to get rid of it. Then it'll shoot back up again.

 

Oh and there's this too:

You see, the thing is, this relies on the source being an actual download. This cannot ever apply to a CD that gets ripped and then shared. And you could still probably strip watermarking the same way we stripped DRM from music.

 

Although, we could see some sort of new rootkit, but I still doubt that type of "control" will ever resurface after the fiasco with SONY's rootkit being turned into malware.

The copy-protection software that was on like half their CD like 2 years ago? I remember that {censored}. I got around it. I burned a copy of the CD through WMP and then just ripped it from the burned. So easy to strip DRM, makes me chuckle. I just thought I'd bring up this new way they're trying to go with, just so we all know ahead of time.
