DRM

This is a followup to yesterday's post.I just purchased a pirated version of the Audi service manual since I couldn't find a download for it.I'm OK with that.I wish the seller on eBay buys himself a case of beer or something.I'm looking at the fucking piece of shit CD-ROM on my desk here and want nothing more than to smash it to bits since it's useless.I paid good money for it.I won't pay good money for encumbered content like that again.It's one thing to spend a buck or two to "rent" a video online. You watch it. You eat your popcorn. You're happy. A fair exchange of value seemed to have taken place.Not this time.And not again.I'd rather pirate this content than to "buy" it. I put buy in quotes because I didn't buy a god damned thing. I transferred money and got nothing to show for it other than a penny's worth of plastic.The next time I need something like this... I guess the well has been poisoned by these idiots.Like I said yesterday -- fuck Bentley Publishers.
