David Byrne: boycott DRM

David Byrne, the former frontman for Talking Heads (and one of my musical heroes), has published a call to boycott DRM CDs, citing the Sony DRM fiasco. Sony-BMG has been embroiled in a multi-million-dollar scandal over its use of copy-restriction technologies that covertly spy on users, compromise the security of their computers, and render their machines unstable.

So, first they start off suing their customers, and now they are maliciously making it hard for their customers to even listen to music, and they will cripple your music and media player to boot. These guys deserve to go out of business, they obviously don't love music, and they don't understand their own customers. They must have a deathwish or be run by....who? FEMA? Rumsfeld? Bin Laden?
