"While I'd love to believe that the egg on Sony's face will force other entertainment companies to shy away from trying to protect their copyrights using DRM, I think the XCP and MediaMax debacles are, ironically, going to usher in an era of widespread acceptance of DRM. By making DRM that is so egregiously horrible, Sony has set the floor for what the public will accept. So long as the next generation of DRM doesn't leave computers vulnerable to viruses the way the XCP rootkit does, the media and the public won't kick up a fuss."
