Wow! I just called a few of the phone numbers that were listed in the story. I let them know that, I would not be buying any music from Warner as long as they distributed their content with DRM. I couldn't believe that there would be actual people picking up the phone and answering!!!!!! EVERYONE should call and let them know how consumers fell about DRM!!!!!

Making a homemade music video and giving it to your friends is piracy in the definition of the worse part of the big music labels. But maybe that will change some day, too, when they realize that there really is free music on the web, and that people might just flock to really freee music when they just push them hard enough: - <a class="user" href="http://neppstar.net">http://neppstar.net</a>- <a class="user" href="http://www.jamendo.com/">http://www.jamendo.com/</a>- <a class="user" href="http://magnatune.com/">http://magnatune.com/</a>- <a class="user" href="http://ccmixter.org/">http://ccmixter.org/</a>- <a class="user" href="http://www.phex.org/wiki/index.php/Free_and_Legal_Content">http://www.phex.org/wiki/index.php/Free_and_Legal_Content</a>

I spent some time calling around this morning. Everyone I spoke with at Warner was pleasant and non confrontational. I told them our position, and my personal feelings about DRM and my buying habits (as in, I am in the habit of not buying anything with DRM!)When you make your calls, post up the results here or on <a class="user" href="http://www.defectivebydesign.org/actions/warner_music_wake_up_call">http://www.defectivebydesign.org/actions/warner_music_wake_up_call</a>
