So what is the technical solution? Random legislation with technical solution is pointless.
Legislate the 200MPG car. Legislate XBOX and PS and Nintendo compatability.
Legislation doesn't make it so. No fan of DRM here, but I am no a fan of government interference where they have no clue what they are asking for.
There is no common DRM. Who does France suggest gets enriched by creating this neutral standard? How do you handle all the myriad of legacy players in the field.
There is no technical solution so Apple will pull out if it is enforced for that reason alone.
Though Apple may be exempt as you can already convert/remove DRM from Itunes songs by burning to CD anyway.
So actually this may be more of an issue for the play4Sure crowd as that system is even more locked in.
