Why ?

Maybe because this is just obvious: controlling

the information is more important (and lucrative)

than controlling hardware only...

Maybe also because those Vista DRMs should be

called "Defective Restriction Management" as

they are already cracked (which is an excellent

thing for the users' legitimate freedom), like it

happened to DVD*CSS, HD-DVD/Blu-ray previously.

Check Alex Ionescu's blog on that DRM by-pass

( http://www.alex-ionescu.com/?p=24 )

This is quite instructive...

Nota Bene: Alex is a core developer of ReactOS,

a libre & free software. He is a real hacker and

a developer, not a pirate. For more details,
