It's funny how the different industries manage their digital products. The software industry gets their products out there first and makes it available to everyone (Commercial, trialware, shareware, freeware, Open Source, etc...) - in as many places as possible. Then they worry about piracy and licensing violations.The entertainent industry worries about piracy first (spending millions advertising it and educating the public), then they worry about making their products available. So in the meantime, hungry consumers willing to spend billions fight DRM, Proprietary Formats, available only to specific Operating Systems, privacy violations, spyware, WTO sanctions in their countries, limited viewing options, etc...
