It's not the publisher or author of the eBook that is saying you can't view the eBook on any device other than an iPad. It is the eBook distributor that is applying that use restriction.
The publisher & author don't give a hoot what device you use to read the eBook. They just want you to buy the eBook & not violate the copyright.
When was the last time you bought a paper book from a book seller who tells you that you can only read that book while wearing the special glasses he sells you?
DRM is the death of old style gaming, and DRM is unreasonable honestly. 'Access methods that are per time period biases' is not a fair/intelligent argument for or against DRM, since you never buy any specific item and thus no ownership arguments, just access arguments.
What the issue is DRM is unethical and so is pirating, but I'll back the pirates first because There is far less sharing, even 'legal' sharing and things are suffering. The everyday consumer is retarded and will accept shit.
@guysseriously They already put one use extra content codes in some 360 games so that the second hand purchaser gets a little bit less of the game, and has to spend MS points to get that content back. That's the publishers/developers clawing back some of what they lose through preowned games, right there.
When will they put DRM on console games? right now console gamers are free to sell their games, exchange with friends without any worry of DRM. PC games used to be the same before DRM came along.
If they add DRM for console games we will see all those 2nd hand game stores shut down. =(
Sounds just like an Apple spokesman. "I digest content in an on demand capacity", "I have no want, need, nor desire to store those videos", "I dont know if 90% of the Galaxy really cares." All his statements incliude the word "I"... him... not everyone else. Well, I care so I guess Im just one of those idiots from the 10% who likes to store his content for later use, without having to rely on some media site to charge me for use, or take the videos down after time, right?
@MCArchangel777 Agreed 100%. Just because you don't use your freedoms doesn't mean that you shouldn't have them. Just because you don't use Linux doesn't mean that you shouldn't be able to use your iPhone on it. Chris is taking the perspective of not caring because he doesn't use his freedoms.
@MCArchangel777 well then u have to pay up! if u wanna store the files then go ahead, but ur gonna have to pay the publisher for having those privileges. if u dont like having to pay extra then dont buy it
I think its funny that he says DRM is fine because he can access what he wants, but he complains that his dvrs dont work together. That is the problem. IMO drm (and closed source software) is great as long as it does what you want and doesn't break, but that doesn't happen.
@theiceman1972 You're observing with blind eyes. Microsoft and Google aren't the only players in the game. I doubt Google or Microsoft has any say over what happens to FreeBSD, Ubuntu Linux or whatever operates on the Sony Playstation series. Think about it some more... Microsoft didn't just talk about it years ago.
People dont like DRM now, just wait until OS's and the software we use on them become DRM only. The new Google OS is the beginning of the DRM computer take over. Soon with no internet access you wont be able to use your computer at all. Microsoft was talking about this years ago and people did not think it would ever happen. Now Google is going to make it happen.
The new ubisofts drm is the worst because you have to be online all the time for single player games and even if theres a brief disconnection from the internet you lose your progress. I mean i like to use steam but you can atleast go offline with it
I wish the isps could stop people having such easy access to illegal torrent sites. They are the portal to the internet so they should have more responsibility to stop their customers obtaining material illegally.
If the isp could stop the access to illegal content in the first place then there would be less need for drm.
Studies have shown that a lot of people who download music spend more on concerts and physical media bcs they are able to do more sampling.
lmao, i hacked so much games and programs that i probably owe people over um..... say somewhere around 1 grand .... Actually i going to some research and see how much and owe and post it on my channel lmao...
Thing is, a lot of people don't have the money to vote with their feet. Chris is really arguing the "Ah, just let market forces decide line." Well actually no. The truth of the matter is the most effective form of protest vote has been piracy. 'Breaking the system' as he puts it has forced the corporations to produce better, cheaper, more easily available products - without that check on the market, the companies would continue to collude in a frequently unusable and expensive environment.
well but the point is, that you want choice how you use the media, like i want use all my media over one player, now spotify allows that,i pay that monthly fee to use its own huge catalog of music but now i can add my own mp3 library on there too, and soon it happen to videos too.
assassins creeed 2 had a pooping drm which scuked, internet connection constant at al ltimes, so when your net disconnects, your save data is kabosh! Piracy is bliss...
I've always been a little on the fence on the issue. I'm in no way a fan of DRM but when people use DRM as an excuse to steal stuff I can't agree with that either. So I'm kind of in agreement with Chris. The iPad doesn't hinder content consumption... The choice is ours.
@JacknifeCreations Digital Rights Management. For example, if you bought an ebook from the Kindle store, but wanted to read it on a Nook, you would not be able to do so, because of DRM. If you buy an MP3 from iTunes, but one day decide you want to listen to it on a Zune instead, you will not be able to do so, because of DRM. DRM forces you to consume content on ONLY the devices which support that DRM. People don't like it because they say "I bought the content, I should decide how to consume it"
@JacknifeCreations No problem. Happy to help. :) It does go a little deeper than that, but there's only so much I can say with the character limits on Youtube comments. Haha! :D
If content creators provide convenient, fair priced and quality product most people will buy it without DRM. A good example of this is Apples iTunes store switch after Amazon started to sell DRM free music. The music industry finally woke up that customers will pay for convenience and quality. I am not sure that this will translate to other industries with higher priced product though.
I buy my music to listen to them when ever, and where ever I want. So if it is not made to be used, learned and enjoyed, why do it in the first place? DRM does not affect on piracy - Pirates capturing ships have a long way to go until DRM has any effect on them. Heck, it doesn't affect on any "software pirate" anyway. If it can be played, it can be copied.
Chris, one thing you mat be disregarding is the concept of "brand loyalty," in which individuals are too loyal to a brand to jump ship. If the brand loyalty is strong enough, DRM can survive. It will be disliked, but it can survive.
If music listeners would stop stealing music and such then these companies wouldn't be using these half-baked attempts to stop it. Piracy hurts everyone even you dumbasses that think art should be totally free, fuck you.
It is amazing how some people think that just because they buy something they can then do what ever they want with it. Systems like Napster hurt artist much more than record companies and publisher, as they get paid first and the artist last.
@lilspark3000 This video was probably made before he got the new MacBook Pro. He just released the unboxing of his MacBook Pro before this video was released.

The system is set up so the Rich gets Richer and the Poor gets Poorer. We have all these financial issues because we are all trapped in a system of Debt and Slavery.

All Digital Content must be available and accessible to all people of the world.
People who Share turrents on the web is a Revolution, too bad we can't share the Planet yet.
I mean anyone can print they're own Paper money, The Federal Reserve does it every single day, and WE play this Game of Exchange, Debt and Inflation. IT's all it is----- A GAME, we can unite and stand against the Game or play the game and be self servants of the rules to the Game and to the Controllers of the game.
It's time FOR WAKING UP
stretch your minds a bit, be freethinkers. Question Everything
DRM is good people. OMFG! You idiots who think DRM is bad are completely stupid. DRM prevents people from copying or downloading without paying. You people who use torrents are so full of shit. Stuff is not free. Work for it, work your job, save some money and fucking buy it if you want it bad enough. DRM prevents fraud, copying, and stupid cheap bastards not willing to pay to get it for free. WORK people, GET A FUCKING JOB!
Spore is loaded with DRM and my friend bought the Full Legal Copy and He hated the DRM.
He reinstalled it on His new Computer (the old computer isn't used at all) and it was easier for him to torrent it and used the serial with his purchased CD and used the Binary that he downloaded from The Pirate Bay and his legal key.
@gix0 its interresting that somewhere allong the middle of the talk he changed its focus from DRM to the publishers, ohh and BTW the publisher do not own the content they just gain allot of money from it, the artists "own" the content.
@MrROTD You call me a thief sir but at least iam civil and honest, as the video says if you dont like it... put your foot down. i choose to put my foot down wherever i want not where other ppl think i should. So if you dont like it dont do it but do not insult me because you think its "stealing". good day to you sir
@gix0 ... You're paying for access, not for a physical copy. Going to a torrent site and getting a physical copy which you don't have rights to is illegal. If you do, and you get caught, you'll get hefty fines... enjoy that o_O
ok, the guy's argument of collecting comics is a myth.
It takes too long for a comic book to become worth anything and that is only if it is in pristine condition. That money would be better invested by buying gold or stock.
Seriously, who wants to wait 30-40 years meticulously maintaining a comic book collection to see if something becomes valuable?
for instance, Xmen #1 is worth about $4.50 in near mint condition. Hardly woth the wait.
I think if you buy a dvd or music file you should be able to put it onto any computer you want to. their should like 50computer you can put it on more than enough for the avg home user. than have a business class one for someone that needs more but you pay more. as for net flick they neeed that on the iphone and i am with you on that i will pay 10buck a month to have the file on thier server to watch it on my computer ipod friends tv ect.
@CoyleTech1 China couldn't do shit. All the computers China uses were made in America. If China is so advanced, then why does everything break that was made from there. I mean seriously, you have it for 5 minutes and it breaks. China's the one making the dollar store toys.
But you kept butting in saying its not fair its not fair. DUDE you need to stop and listen.
How about this... Lets say you bought a music CD and it said that yiy could only play it on your home stereo and nothing else. no iphone ipod or ipad or any other device. How would you feel??? Pissed right. You feel you own that CD and you should be able to play it on anything. This is what the guiy was talking about. And your saying its not fair...
Dude you need to chill out and stop drinking. You need to listen. Go back watch this sobar and listen to how much you did not listen to the guy. Thumbs up if you agree with me.
This guy was saying that if he downloaded something then he should be able to play on his stereo or dvd player ipod discman whatever. he paid for it. The only thing i disagree with him is putting it online for everyone else to grab for free.... Part 1
@Codester145 Digital rights management, is a generic term for access control technologies that can be used by hardware manufacturers, publishers, copyright holders and individuals to impose limitations on the usage of digital content and devices. The term is used to describe any technology that inhibits uses of digital content not desired or intended by the content provider.(WIKIPEDIA)
...you'll know it was there when something happens, and it does, and someone can not subscribe any longer and then all the things that you have paid for in the past suddenly disappears when your "library" or "bookshelf" was controlled by a subscription. If you can "keep" an audiobook, redownload and replay it after closing an Audible account for instance we are unharmed.
Complacency is part of the problem. Apple is swamping you with DRM but Chris going Meh means that only opens the door for more DRM. And whats worse, @happyquails is right. You dont own a thing on your Apple. They decided what you can and cant have on there and you have to pay them for the right to look at stuff.
If apple made cars theyd have no hood. Youd have to remove the body to change the oil, and you could only do it at authorized Apple shops. Theyre oppressive.
I dnt care what Anyone says DRM is EVIL!!!. Buying Digital Music should be like buying a CD, I should be able to move it from place to place, give to whoever i want, and copy it as many times as i want.
Well the man behind the whole Marvel app thing is Joe Quesada. And I'm not shock about him using DRM on this App. And he's knew for being an ass hole from time to time. Like his fight with J. Michael Straczynsk telling him "It's MAGIC...We don't have to explain it" For saying there is no 10 year old readers in comics or telling a bloger "So... "what are you fucking going to cry about tomorrow?" And he said that on an Interview on the New York Observer.
I hate that iTunes movies have DRM. Which means I can't burn them to a DVD and play on my 55-inch TV... unless I want to buy a AppleTV to get iPod component cables. It's bullshit! If I'm paying for a digital movie that cost MORE than an actual DVD I can hold in my hand, I should be able to burn it to a DVD if I choose.
Great vid,hope you get more questions like this,very interesting topic,pay out the 'wazoo',don't support them at all or be a pirate,its a very interesting topic.
American are such cry babies... you at least get service, we don't even get to download a single thing from iTunes... I AM WILLING TO PAY... FFS... But I can't buy anything from iTunes other than "APPS for iPhone".
I can't access hulu, can't access netflix, can't access itune store, can't access rhypsodi, can't access pandora...
Seriously you're crying about DRM... FFS stop being jerks and put yourself in shoe of 5.4 billion people outside US.
@Greeniemaxx Sounds like you live in like outer space or something. Everyone else in the world has access to all those things. If you're not happy in outer space or wherever you are, that you're not able to get to these things because of your area. Why not use a proxy?
@AppleHack23 Yeah really? I think you live in a closed box where you don't know rest of the world can't access NetFlix streaming, Hulu videos, Pandora...
Why not use "Proxy"? Because Proxy will not give me American IP address to access these services, nor will it give me American Credit card to buy these services, nor will it give me American mobile number to receive SMS from Pandora app.
@Greeniemaxx You're an idiot. There are United States proxies fool. And you don't need an American credit card. If you want to access American features, then move to America. By you calling Americans idiots isn't going to help you. And let me tell you, America is not idiots. We can beat your country any day. We are the ruling country in the world. Nobody can beat us. You want to be safe, you move here. You want netflix, you move here, you want hulu, move here, you want freedom move here.
@Greeniemaxx heh, never knew that, well i don't really use hulu and pandora or netflix, anywho applehack is defining the selfish average american, and that makes me sad, but hey what can ya do about it.
I don't think it's as much a step back as it isn't a step forward in regards to DRM. Nothing has really changed between the previous model and any current model that the iPad brings.
It's not the publisher or author of the eBook that is saying you can't view the eBook on any device other than an iPad. It is the eBook distributor that is applying that use restriction.
The publisher & author don't give a hoot what device you use to read the eBook. They just want you to buy the eBook & not violate the copyright.
When was the last time you bought a paper book from a book seller who tells you that you can only read that book while wearing the special glasses he sells you?
1banders 3 weeks ago
The way to defeat DRM and restrictive use licensing, it to stop buying such products.
Instead, buy the CD, DVD or paper book. They cannot legally stop you from selling, lending, or giving away the CD, DVD or paper book you purchased.
1banders 3 weeks ago
Many people seem to confuse DRM with the restrictive license that the DRM enforces.
DRM is merely a system (typically involving encryption) that makes it harder for you to violate terms of the use license.
But even if the product were sold without DRM, you'd still be legally bound the restrictive terms of the use license.
They're not selling you the file or other container that holds the digital content, They're only selling you a license to use the digital content.
1banders 3 weeks ago
DRM is the death of old style gaming, and DRM is unreasonable honestly. 'Access methods that are per time period biases' is not a fair/intelligent argument for or against DRM, since you never buy any specific item and thus no ownership arguments, just access arguments.
What the issue is DRM is unethical and so is pirating, but I'll back the pirates first because There is far less sharing, even 'legal' sharing and things are suffering. The everyday consumer is retarded and will accept shit.

@lilspark3000 This video was probably made before he got the new MacBook Pro. He just released the unboxing of his MacBook Pro before this video was released. The way he uploads his videos is not chronological. Apparently they don't come out right after he makes them, and he just releases the most interesting videos first.

The system is set up so the Rich gets Richer and the Poor gets Poorer. We have all these financial issues because we are all trapped in a system of Debt and Slavery.
When we all learn that all Money, all currency digital, paper or metal is Obsolete and we must Evolve past it, then we can all move forward.
All Digital Content must be available and accessible to all people of the world.
People who Share turrents on the web is a Revolution, too bad we can't share the Planet yet.

DRM is good people. OMFG! You idiots who think DRM is bad are completely stupid. DRM prevents people from copying or downloading without paying. You people who use torrents are so full of shit. Stuff is not free. Work for it, work your job, save some money and fucking buy it if you want it bad enough. DRM prevents fraud, copying, and stupid cheap bastards not willing to pay to get it for free. WORK people, GET A FUCKING JOB!

@ViciousDave4Life Dave, DRM Fails most of the time.
Spore is loaded with DRM and my friend bought the Full Legal Copy and He hated the DRM.
He reinstalled it on His new Computer (the old computer isn't used at all) and it was easier for him to torrent it and used the serial with his purchased CD and used the Binary that he downloaded from The Pirate Bay and his legal key.
DRM is Bullshit and it fails.

ok, the guy's argument of collecting comics is a myth.
It takes too long for a comic book to become worth anything and that is only if it is in pristine condition. That money would be better invested by buying gold or stock.
Seriously, who wants to wait 30-40 years meticulously maintaining a comic book collection to see if something becomes valuable?
for instance, Xmen #1 is worth about $4.50 in near mint condition. Hardly woth the wait.

I think if you buy a dvd or music file you should be able to put it onto any computer you want to. their should like 50computer you can put it on more than enough for the avg home user. than have a business class one for someone that needs more but you pay more. as for net flick they neeed that on the iphone and i am with you on that i will pay 10buck a month to have the file on thier server to watch it on my computer ipod friends tv ect.

How about this... Lets say you bought a music CD and it said that yiy could only play it on your home stereo and nothing else. no iphone ipod or ipad or any other device. How would you feel??? Pissed right. You feel you own that CD and you should be able to play it on anything. This is what the guiy was talking about. And your saying its not fair...

...you'll know it was there when something happens, and it does, and someone can not subscribe any longer and then all the things that you have paid for in the past suddenly disappears when your "library" or "bookshelf" was controlled by a subscription. If you can "keep" an audiobook, redownload and replay it after closing an Audible account for instance we are unharmed.

Complacency is part of the problem. Apple is swamping you with DRM but Chris going Meh means that only opens the door for more DRM. And whats worse, @happyquails is right. You dont own a thing on your Apple. They decided what you can and cant have on there and you have to pay them for the right to look at stuff.
If apple made cars theyd have no hood. Youd have to remove the body to change the oil, and you could only do it at authorized Apple shops. Theyre oppressive.

Well the man behind the whole Marvel app thing is Joe Quesada. And I'm not shock about him using DRM on this App. And he's knew for being an ass hole from time to time. Like his fight with J. Michael Straczynsk telling him "It's MAGIC...We don't have to explain it" For saying there is no 10 year old readers in comics or telling a bloger "So... "what are you fucking going to cry about tomorrow?" And he said that on an Interview on the New York Observer.

I hate that iTunes movies have DRM. Which means I can't burn them to a DVD and play on my 55-inch TV... unless I want to buy a AppleTV to get iPod component cables. It's bullshit! If I'm paying for a digital movie that cost MORE than an actual DVD I can hold in my hand, I should be able to burn it to a DVD if I choose.

@AppleHack23 Yeah really? I think you live in a closed box where you don't know rest of the world can't access NetFlix streaming, Hulu videos, Pandora...
Why not use "Proxy"? Because Proxy will not give me American IP address to access these services, nor will it give me American Credit card to buy these services, nor will it give me American mobile number to receive SMS from Pandora app.

@Greeniemaxx You're an idiot. There are United States proxies fool. And you don't need an American credit card. If you want to access American features, then move to America.
