Apparently he doesn't believe it's simple enough for consumers...

When Gates tell you to just rip a CD there is somethign going on :) One funny thing I read the other day is that because Apple refuses to license iTunes DRM to anyone else a few recording companies have actually started selling DRM free MP3s. I'm talking RIAA companies not independants. Somewhat ironic I must say.

Methinks he's starting to regret bending over for the music companies in designing the DRM for the Zune.

It's not so fun fun when you find yourself on the other end of the bending, eh? :-)
