  Windows Vista Content Protection - Twenty Questions (and Answers)
Time: 17:59 EST/22:59 GMT | News Source: Windows Vista Blog | Posted By: John Quigley

A conversation has cropped up since the recent publication of a paper scrutinizing how Windows handles digital rights management, especially for HD video. I've since looped back with Dave Marsh, a Lead Program Manager responsible for Windows' handling of video, to learn from him the implications involved and to learn to what extent the paper's assertions are accurate. The following is an article Dave has put together to address the misconceptions in the paper, followed by answers to what we expect will be the most frequent questions in the minds of our customers. Leave us a comment to let us know what you think. -- Nick Over the holidays, a paper was distributed that raised questions about the content protection features in Windows Vista. The paper draws sharp conclusions about the implications of those features for our customers. As one of the Lead Program Managers for the technologies in question, I would like to share our views on these questions.

Is it just me, or does everyone's eyes get whacked by the coloring on the Vista blog?
I copy and paste the text into an email and send it to myself, because after visiting that site, I get a flash bulb sort of reaction.


Okay, so the short take is what objective people have known and been saying for years:
1) No one at Microsoft likes restrictions on content any more than any one of the users of their software - it's bad for business, makes things more complex and it's time consuming - taxing resources of all types.

2) As a platform, Windows Vista provides a path whereby independent hardware vendors may support the consumption of protected content on a PC - including HD DVD and Blu-ray.

3) Users of Vista "can" make full use of protected content on PC's designed for and equipped with widely available hardware.

4) Yes, high definition content does take more resources to support - BUT, any early adopter of the hardware required to playback HD content very likely has enough beef in a system to be able to handle it on a PC at least as well as a stand alone player.

I hope that the anti-MS pundits out there will pay attention to the facts and actually test things before they yammer away as they do.

#2 I always take advice about Windows from morons who have this at the top of their blog:

"We all know that one day Linux will rule the world, but there's a lot of work to do to make it happen. So join me as I explore the depths of Linux one command line at a time."

Ok ... I NEVER take advice from morons ... especially morons recommended by their fellow travellers.
