Fictionwise, where I've bought Palm compatible short stories and novellas for years, has upgraded their service to include the Kindle in their comprehensive list of supported e-book formats. ...When you bought a book or a CD, there was a fairly limited circle of friends or acquaintances with whom you could share it. Not so with digital files. An MP3 file can zoom around the world to thousands of people in the time it would take to call a friend to brag about the new Gnarls Barkley album. To limit that potential, publishers now demand that digital content be locked down to the purchaser. In spite of these limitations, the iTunes Store has now surpassed Walmart as a retailer of music and Amazon hopes to grow its resource of books available in digital format. DRM is a function of both ownership and geography. Publishers like to carve up the world into regions, as evidenced by the region encoding that's long been an irritating aspect of DVD sales, so trying to buy DRM protected music from outside the region tends to be blocked. It has long been a great irony to me that because of DRM restrictions, the works of VS Naipaul available on Audible, a supplier of downloadable audiobooks recently bought by Amazon, cannot be purchased by a citizen of Trinidad and Tobago.]]>Mark LyndersayBitDepth - June 20082008-06-16T23:03:41-04:00http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/emeagwali.html#unique-entry-id-31http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/emeagwali.html#unique-entry-id-31Mark LyndersayBitDepth - June 20082008-06-14T14:02:40-04:00http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/BitDepth631.html#unique-entry-id-30http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/BitDepth631.html#unique-entry-id-30Mark LyndersayBitDepth - June 20082008-06-02T18:30:02-04:00http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/dieflash.html#unique-entry-id-29http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/dieflash.html#unique-entry-id-29Mark LyndersayBitDepth - May 20082008-05-26T20:29:46-04:00http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/vistauptake.html#unique-entry-id-28http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/vistauptake.html#unique-entry-id-28Mark LyndersayBitDepth - May 20082008-05-19T19:41:58-04:00http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/BitDepth628.html#unique-entry-id-27http://www.lyndersaydigital.com/writing/bd/08_files/BitDepth628.html#unique-entry-id-27
