Digital rights management (DRM) is an umbrella term referring to technologies used by publishers or copyright owners to control access to or usage of digital data or hardware, and to restrictions associated with a specific instance of a digital work or device. Read more about DRM at Wikipedia
enddrm.info is a place to gather support for those who feel that Digital Rights Management is not the answer to piracy and simply does not work. At the moment, our focus is on music, but of course as we gain more support, we will branch off into other areas of media. DRM Doesn't belong anywhere.
So why should we try to end DRM? Because DRM does nothing but hurt you, the consumer. It is a way to support monopolies or force you to pay for the same content mulitple times.
Alright, so you want to help? What should you do? Buy from stores that sell DRM Free music! You can find a list of stores under our suppport section. Refuse to buy any music that supports DRM. You should also start to spread the word about DRM. So far, I've never met a person that enjoyed DRM. I've only met people that are unaware of it. So tell people what's happening to their music, and how they're being hurt by it.
Please link back to enddrm.info to help stop DRM in it's tracks. Put a button on your blog or social networking profile. Write a post about it. Tell a friend. Any move to raise awareness is a good move.
