Description: MSFT kicked ass by being unafraid to clobber IBM's business model with MSDOS. Now it stands astride the globe like a titan, laughing the face of the world's roughest, toughest antitrust regulators. Why then is MSFT pursuing Digital Rights Management? Does Hollywood even *want* MSFT DRM? Do any of MSFT's customers? Can MSFT take the high-road on DRM without being soft on people who bootleg Windows? I sure think so.
