[QUOTE="BadMojo, post: 3483092, member: 569"] Yeah. Not happy about the possibility of annoying DRM. The sad fact of DRM for any media is that the people who want to copy and distribute it illegally are going to be able to do so quite easily. It could easily turn in to a hassle for honest users of the content and a complete joke as far as deterring piracy. It seems like people are cracking DRM within hours of it being released. I'm also not crazy about the idea of "renting" content unless the price is *very* low. I know the information that can be released is limited, but it's really silly to say "we've been planning this for a year" and then turn around and answer "We don't know" to a series of really basic questions about the product. I would have felt better if they said "there are quite a few things we're working on, but we're not ready to share the details yet". At any rate, It's nice to see some kind of acknowledgment of the concerns of a very large online community dedicated to WotC's products. [/QUOTE]
