DRM and Suicide Committed by Industries

[dewline]

I keep thinking this DRM stuff is going to be Very Bad Indeed for manufacturers, creators and customers alike.

antipope just reminded me of why that may yet be so. Give it a look-see.

More on other stuff later today...

Interesting linkage there. Food for considerable thought.

I have no idea how well Weightless is doing. The advantage they had was that they were initially financially backed by the established Small Beer Press. The disadvantage is that their site is not all that attractive or easy to navigate (the same is true for Wizard's Tower Press), and of course right now they are only working with small press publishers. I have no idea if they have any plans to change this in the future.
