Decent article about why DRM and other copy-proofing measures are poorly effective. Really bad title, both here and the original.
Best quote:
"The computer industry are not opposing your bill because they want to encourage copying, or because they are bloody-minded, they are not opposing you because of your self serving rhetoric about rewarding artists (remember Peggy Lee, Michael?), they are opposing you because what you want is provably impossible. You can only succeed by making all Turing machines illegal."
