Agree! I even sent them e-mail telling them I didn't care about DRM, and, even though I got why, and I didn't wanted to oppose them, I DIDN'T WANTED THEM TO WASTE TIME ON DRM!
And I am sooo deceived now: they can't handle DRM? NO PROBLEM! They are running late? NO PROBLEM! Just get me what you promised me whenever you get there!
I wish I was offered a choice, here, instead of being forced to take my money back.
- Sanddancer 11y agoGiven a half million dollars doesn't fund a hardware company with a few dozen employees, it sounds like they have other investors, with deeper pockets, that do want DRM. At that point, the KS money becomes more a liability than an asset, and refunding the money is a wise business decision. This frees them to make potentially necessary design decisions that would upset their kickstarter backers, like migrating from Firefox OS and adding DRM features, that would please their other backers.
