Even if users agree to some kind of collective licensing agreement, the copyright holders likely will not, or demand that everything be locked down with DRM.
Either way, PayBay will be a failure. -- "The trouble with computers, of course, is that they are very sophisticated idiots." - Doctor Who (from Robot)

| Wait, didn't they just learn that music DRM was bad?
Then again, I had to torrent a recent music purchase because the MP3 doesnloads didn't work correctly (can only download once) and I had to call Napster if I wanted to reset things. Seriously, who calls tech support anymore for such things? IM or e-mail, fine. Calling...uh, no.
Heck, the BitTorrent download of the album in question was just as fast as getting the files from Napster. |
