as i have been saying, but it's good to have someone 'known' to say the same thing.

Quite a few readers seemed to think that Vista will ship with an amazing, unprecedented amount of DRM, which will prohibit them from doing all the fun non-DRM stuff they enjoy today. This just really isn't true.
But the key word here is support. Vista supports these DRM schemes, but does not require them. There is absolutely nothing in Vista that will require you to use content with DRM. There is nothing that will prevent you from running those applications that strip the DRM from your DVDs. Your ripped movies and MP3s and other DRM-less content will work just fine. Vista will not phone home to report your illegal file sharing activities and notify the MPAA and RIAA and phone your mom who won't say boy are you gonna get it when your father gets home.
