Carta abierta a la industria musical/cinematográfica

dear music/movie industry

you are attempting to control the flow of ones and zeros in a world where an electronic communication system designed to withstand a nuclear attack is now ubiquitous

you should give up. you've lost, and will keep losing. it's just silly to keep going down this path. there is only more pain in store for you

people will still make movies. people will still make music. it's just that your particular pre-internet business model is now obsolete

go ask the aztecs or the incans if the appearance of new technology was fair to their empires

it wasn't. but it didn't stop technology in the form of gunpowder and sailing ships and metal armor from rendering them obsolete

so it is with you and the internet

sorry

reality is a bitch

P.S.

Por cierto, han roto el lector de HD-DVD de la xbox, haciéndole una modificación por hardware, de tal manera que aunque se revoquen claves (que es la estrategia recogida en la variedad de DRM llamada AACS que usan tanto BluRay como HD-DVD) da igual. Se sigue pudiendo romper la encriptación. Jaque mate.
