In what worldIn what worldPosted Jan 27, 2006 19:39 UTC (Fri) by stevenj (guest, #421)In reply to: In what world by jreiser Parent article: Stallman leads the GPL off a cliff (ZDNet) There seem to be a few problems with your argument. First, most software developers are employed to write custom applications that are never used outside a single company, so enforcement of copyright law (and beyond) is irrelevant to their personal income. Second, companies have made money selling software for many years now without widespread DRM. Third, one doesn't get the impression that many developers support DRM; the impetus seems to come largely from major media corporations.
