It sounds like those DefectiveByDesign guys were simply in the wrong place, but at the right time: Sweden has joined forces with Denmark and Norway to add fuel to the fire of pre uring A le into opening up its FairPlay iTMS DRM system. A quote from a Swedish Co umer Agency okeswoman du the iTMS ToS flat-out "illegal", and all three countries are threatening to take the case to their re ective market courts.
DRM debates aside (which have been raging here over the last couple of posts), my money is on some music industry lo yists making all this go away, as we saw when France tried this.
