Oh yeah?

How long before all books are DRMed, hmmm?

I'm not arguing for or against TV watching or movies or music. I AM arguing, however, that it would be idea if people had the option of choosing to engage and BE CREATIVE with those sorts of things without having to sacrficie too much of their freedom of motion and freedom of expression to big media companies.

If you think all movies and TV are crap, that's fine. Don't watch them. On the other hand, if you *do* want to be able to engage at some level with newspapers, recently written popular books, movies, music, the Internet, and so forth, then you really need to be worried about what's going on with DRM and media control.
