FairUse4M DRM turned to free tunes and MP3 files



The third version of FairUse4M has a simple drag-and-drop interface. PC users can turn the protected music files they bought online and turn them into DRM-free tunes that can be copied and shared at will, or turned into MP3 files that can play on any type of digital music player.

This is hardly the first time Microsoft deals with this kind og thing.

Could there be a conspiracy headed by Microsoft hoping to encourage such breaches?

I think it's a psychological game Microsoft plays to its advantage. They know how much people hate them, and they know people will hack anyway, so they create these loopholes that are relatively easy to go into, and invite hackers to try. They get ll the publicity for free, people never lose interest in Microsoft, and if another industry gets screwed in the process, that's only an added bonus...

Nope, doesn't do them any good.  Microsoft needs DRM to succeed for Vista to succeed, as it's nothing more than a giant DRM decoder!
