Sony Shows How to Screw Up
Sony has justifiably been taking a lot of flack over the root-kit issue.
If you haven’t heard about this issue, then you probably get all of your news from the mainstream media. Take a minute and read the cnet story; I’ll wait.
If Apple can be said to have done DRM properly with iTunes’ FairPlay, and I think they can, then Sony has just spectacularly demonstrated how not to do it.
Sony is backpeddaling on this, to some small extent, but I bet no one at Sony gets fired over it.
