Why DRM is the wrong economic model

Umair does an excellent job putting DRM in an economic context. For example: “…the problem with DRM based on analog property rights is not that consumers won’t accept it – they might, for a while. It’s that it’s a brittle solution, which sets huge incentives for it’s own disruption.”

His approach is to create “…economic solutions which massively distribute incentives to share, by virally redistributing revenues.” (This is something Kevin Marks — the mediAgora — has also been talking about since a quarter before forever.) [Thanks for the link, AKMA!] [Technorati tags: ]
