DRM은 이미 죽었다.

via~Techcrunch The Inevitable Death of DRM

 I spoke with Yahoo Music GM David Goldberg and VP Product Development Ian Rogers last week about their views on the future of DRM, given Goldberg’s comments about DRM a year ago (see above). The forty minute podcast is up at TalkCrunch. While they don’t quite agree that DRM’s demise is inevitable, they do have valuable insights as music insiders as to what may happen in the short term. One interesting prediction that Goldberg made is that we might see DRM and DRM-free tracks being sold side by side, with DRM music sold at a discount. I think that the general availability of illegal and quasi-legal alternatives may not allow that market to develop, but we’ll see. They also predict the rise of music subscription services.
