Cory @ MS on DRM - As You Like It

Share It Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Copy link

Anil Dash and Matt Haughey took advantage of the ability to add to/improve upon public domain materials by adding linky goodness and improved readability to Cory Doctorow's much-discussed and most excellent speech on DRM @ Microsoft. Then someone else took the next logical step and created a Wiki.

Very cool. Thanks, guys.

Update: Via Todd Bishop at the Microsoft blog, Cory's speech as an audio file, read by none other than Jason Kottke.
