The DMCA or would you like a legal monopoly law?

A nice post from CoryDoctorow about how the DMCA allows a company to lock consumers into a monopoly.

Buy some DRM'd content (a song, movie etc) from us and we can use the DMCA to stop you accessing that content on a competitors system. You'll have to buy the content all over again or stick with us.

Me? I'm sticking with physical CDs.
