Interesting but too short and just glosses over many isses. The debate is about CONTROL pure and simple. While Mr. Attaway claims the debate is about CHOICES, he fails to realize that once all the entertainment media is "locked down" the choice will evaporate.

DRM may be sold to use by giving us choices, but once it controls everything, those choice will disappear.
