Microsoft boss Bill Gates has told a group of influential bloggers that copy protection for digital music and video is too complex for consumers. Microsoft is one of the biggest exponents of DRM, which is used to protect music and video files on lots of different online services, including Napster and the Zune store.
In the UK it is illegal to make personal copies of CDs, although the music industry has made clear it will take no action against people copying their legally bought CDs to their computers or music players. Critics of DRM argue that the tools limit the value of downloaded music or video files because of the restrictions imposed to try to prevent copying. They say that DRM is routinely circumvented and that different competing standards cause confusion for consumers.
