And here is the interesting comment from Intel about DRM:

Interestingly, MacDonald also told CNET.com.au that Viiv won't be testing to see if the content being played is pirated from networks such as BitTorrent. He believes that it's not Intel's job to be policing downloads and that it's wrong to assume that "all consumers are criminals". As such, Viiv won't test for "watermarks" or other red flags that reveal pirated content, allowing any type of media to be played

It's nice to see some corperations waking up to the fact that DRM is just bad technology that should be buried alive.
