Will Microsoft be able to succeed where others have failed?!
pre-recorded DVD disc that consumers can play only once. The discs

Call me pessimistic, but I just don't think this going to work. I
mean, I think it is worth a try, perhaps they'll be able to salvage
some of the capital loss from piracy, but eventally tinkering geeks
around the world will crack this code. It happens everytime.
I hope it does work. I'm not going to lie and say I've never seen
a boot leg of a Box Office smash a few days after it premiered in the
states, but it would be nice to pay a lot less on a brand new release
with theater quality. You have to take out a freakin' Signature
Loan to go to the Theater these days (whatever happen to good old
Drive-ins.. $5.00 per person in the car.. save money by throwing a
blanket on you sister on the floor of the back seat.. good times..).
I've never bought a boot leg. Not because of ethics, mind you…
sorry to disappoint you (MPAA is no friend of mine). But the
quality sucks. I think it will be win-win if the One time watch
DVD works. But its kind of ironic that the greatest software pirates of all times is creating a device to stop pirates…
