Those DRM-laden files that stress the end user? No, I don't think so.

I just got a Nokia 5310 from Rogers and guess what? Digital Downloads. I can't play my own MP3s I rip from the CDs I HAVE PURCHASED. So f*** digital downloads. Aside from the stressing DRM killing my items, it's also time consuming to download, limited to use and lesser fidelity. Yes, I tried to buy a song off Rogers store, and it didn't sound like what I have ripped, even if it says "256kbps." And it was a bigger filesize.]]>Oct 27th 2008 4:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/Oct 27th 2008 6:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/
Hey, everything you said is what other people said about music downloads. Look at them now - no DRM in most of the stores: Amazon, Zune, etc. (I do not use iTunes, so I am not sure). Unlimited music subscription, etc. And it's been only a few years!

I definitely think movie downloads will be widespread in a short time. And they will either be subscription based (kinda like TV channels now) or will have a non-DRM version for sale (probably with some resolution, format, etc. limitations).

So if you guys are complaining about DRM in movies now, you are probably short-sighted. Just wait for a little bit.

If there is no DRM, the fact still remains that digital D/Ls still have limited quality compared to physical media.

And you'd still buy physical storage mediums.]]>Oct 27th 2008 7:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/http://xkcd.com/488/

So remember: If you want a collection you can count on, PIRATE IT.

Hey, you'll be a criminal either way.]]>Oct 27th 2008 8:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/Oct 27th 2008 5:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/27/standalone-vcr-party-finally-ends-jvc-shuts-the-door-as-it-leav/
