I always thought they should have applied all the new DRM features to digital downloads only. In that context, sharing and selling does look consumer friendly and if they make it convenient consumers will move away from physical media.

- Cyril-Boh 13y agoI wish they coined another term for this rather then digital downloads. How can a download not be digital?
- dragonwriter 13y agoProvided you had an analog communication channel and storage medium you could have analog downloads -- it would be similar to recording per-digital TV on a VCR. But, yeah, "digital download" is mostly pointless noise.
