FredDC writes "Lately it seems that every day I read one or more stories about someone saying DRM is bad. I think the question no longer is if DRM is bad or not. Everyone, or most anyway, involved seem to agree on that by now. The real question is, what is being done to get rid of DRM? So far, not alot!
