»DRM and Fair Use

Quote
This report will discuss the implications and ramifications of Digital Rights Management (DRM) and how it impedes on consumers right to fair use. Fair use is what gives consumers basic rights to content that they purchase. Copyright owners have been against fair use since the first piece of electronic recording equipment was released. Consumer rights are being violated by DRM.

backups are older and more than just games

a long time ago in the industry, originals were not used at all

the original software was backed up and stored off-site (safe deposit box or some other secure area), then copies would be made from the backup of the original for use daily and when they were worn, new copies were made from the backup; only when the backup was worn would the sacred original be used to make another backup; sometimes multiple 1st generation backups would be used

Thanks for the input. I was just using the gaming example of something I have done in the past which I cannot do now... Damn Starforce crap.

Welcome to the site.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!
