The courses are brilliant and for the few that pursue them and are inspired to go on to bigger and better things ... then they are incredible value for money for them and for society.

DRM is simply an artificial barrier to entry. A good investment requires a company with a good product and a high barrier to entry. In the 80's they had it good.

In the reverse case, by the time the digital signal is failing, had you had an analogue signal there you would be getting absolutely nothing.
