DRM stops leaks

By Ashok Argent-Katwala

Oh no, hang on, it doesn't.

iTunes slipped up and put the wrong episode of Stargate Atlantis on their store. It was the first filmed, but the fourth episode of the season. It is wrapped in the usual tasty DRM wrapper and it hasn't aired anywhere yet. Strangely, though, the video has made it onto the usual torrent sites.

So much for the notion that DRM keeps content off the ad-hoc networks.

(Sorry for the long gap in posts here – things have been pretty busy since August. I've either been away, working hard or both for quite a while. Things are settling down now, and I've lots of nearly finished articles coming soon.)
