[Linux-aus] DRM article in The Age / SMH

[Jonathan Oxer]

Hi LA,

Over the last couple of weeks Michael Dwyer has been researching the
ruckus over the DRM aspects of the FTA for an article in The Age / SMH.
I spoke to him a couple of times about it and got the impression that he
was working really hard to get the (complicated) story straight. The end
result comes down very heavily against the potentially draconian results
of legislated DRM protection:

Most of the story is from the point of view of consumer access to
content, but I got some comments in there about software development as
well.

Cheers  :-)
