Is DRM dead?
According to this guy, it could be. Amazon.com is planning on launching a music-downloading store that sells only DRM-free music, other digital music stores (like eMusic for example) have been successfully selling it for years, and even iTunes is offering music without copy restrictions. I'm the only person on the planet who doesn't own an iPod or use iTunes (whoo Rio Carbon!), so as far as I know, I've actually never dealt with DRM myself, but I can definitely see where people have a problem with it.
In other news, I started on the Kuhn book for LIS 2000. Not too hard to understand, but definitely hard to plod through. I give it a resounding "...Meh."

I, too, have a Rio, though it's a different model than yours and I can't recall precisely which just now. They are remarkably sturdy. It's a shame that the company isn't around any longer.

Don't worry, I don't have an iPod or use iTunes, either (we should have a support group or something) although I do have that behemoth iTunes software installed from back before I realized it didn't make my life any better/easier. Someone gave me a Rio; it's cute and nice and all but I never got in the habit of using it, either -- i guess it takes a lot to grab me! (i've been using the internet regularly/daily for over 10 years, though). -Lydia
