Very well written and explains all of the details surrounding "fair use"
I really think fair use is under the microscope and at this point, is so narrow in what's acceptable, that it's no surprise that companies like Microsoft really don't care about fair use.
My personal feeling on fair use is that people, regardless of any details or additions to the DMCA, individuals will still want to find fair and open ways to protect their purchases.
I apprecaite these programs that are out there because they really do work for those of us that are honest and just wanting a way to make backups that don't lock us into a single system.
