Hollywood was never going to stop using DRM.
I'm not sure of that at all. The RIAA was never going to release digital music with DRM, and CBS was never going to support HDTV without the broadcast flag. The copyright cartels may hold their customers in contempt, but they do like money.

- pyalot2 13y agoThe matter of the fact is that the W3C is the first organization to systematically cave in to content cartel demands. Do you honestly think that "the web" has fewer leverage than television networks? What the Web doesn't have is a unified front, a group of champions. The W3C should have been one of those champions, which makes the W3C curruption so extremel disapointing.
