said by openbox9 :said by tiger72 :I think DRM and poor quality go hand in hand in most circumstances. But there's no technical relationship between DRM and audio/video quality of the content. I never said it was a technical relationship. It's just a working relationship.
DRM (over the internet) -> shitty quality.
Of course, old, physical media with DRM is the preferred method of delivery by the antiquated movie and television industry. DVDs have DRM, as do all future media proposed and preferred by the studies. That doesn't change the fact that when it comes to the internet, DRM is pretty synonymous with crappy quality. I don't see the studios changing their mind on using DRM, just like I don't see them changing their mind on using 400x300 video (or whatever other low-res, low-bitrate video they choose to use). -- |- The LP »www.lp.org/issues/issues.shtml -| |- Cato @ Liberty »www.cato-at-liberty.org -| |
