Web Daddy Berners-Lee DRMs HTML5 into 2016

Re: That seems like a lot of work just to make the internet inconvenient.

Exactly. I just don't see the point in most DRM. You can get the content some other way, so you just step over the tiny hurdle that took a group of amazing developers months to perfect.

Oh, you have unbreakable DRM on a games console that stops me grabbing your content? I guess I can't just pipe the HDMI to a hard drive, right? Oh, I can? Sweet.
