But as #Techmoan showed, the idea of a "disposable rental" even existed with #VHS, and whilst #2View got literally #hacked by #clippy at least it's not complete #eWaste as people end up with a #reuseable 140min #Tape after it with allegedly just a little markup compared to a #rental and cheaper than buying a blank tape & renting a movie...

• Still I dislike that idea just as much as #DIVX [not to be confused with the #DivX #codec!] because #DRM & #CopyProtection always is an #AntiFeature...

Matt, you did the world a service, turning a video cassete of #CoyoteUgly into a blank cassette. (v d l i) #2View #Techmoan

Lustiger Mechanismus... aber #DRM hat schon zu analogen Zeiten nicht funktioniert.
