Into the stone age. |
The very short history of information: The information age began when people drew pictures on walls in caves. The information was stuck to that place. Then people used stone tablets. The information became mobile. Then someone (the Chinese) invented the letterpress printing and finally Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. The information was immaterial. Then the music industry developed DRM: digital-rights-management or in other words, a technology, that sticks information to a thing (i.e. a computer). The stone age began.
So have a good time with Wilma and Fred (a.k.a. content producer who still think DRM is the solution and not the problem)!
