DRM stops my friend from watching what he pays for
My friend Michael Zenke recently posted about his problems with DRM. He's a big supporter of Netflix and their streaming video option. So he was very frustrated to discover that he can't watch Netflix streaming video on his second monitor (while he works in the first monitor) because of DRM. As usual, if he was getting infringing copies off the internet from "pirates", it would work however he liked. But because he went the legal route and paid for it, it's less useful to him.
