False Dichotomy
My government is being pressured by the USA to criminalize ripping a DVD into a file even if the only thing I do with the file is watch the movie at home on exactly the same device that plays a DVD. I can "buy" some movies on iTunes, but not in HD. And they have DRM that restricts moving them from device to device. I have anxiety about DRM, I never know if the DRM servers will be shut down and I'll be left locked out of my movies, as has happened repeatedly in Entertainment history.

Interesting perspective on movie DRM. I have no arguments to argue with it: legitimate customers are punished for buying original movies (the same with games) while the piracy offers superior user experience (!). Is it only Apple that is capable of solving this problem as it did with music and iTunes?
