One of my reasons for switching to a mac was the rumours of the Digital Rights Management (DRM) to be included in the next version of Windows (Longhorn Vista).

A article on CNET News.com appears to confirm this fear, at least for high end high definition video: Hollywood, Microsoft align on new Windows.

I am certainly not out to make pirate copies of the latest Hollywood blockbuster, but at the same time, I would like to be able to do what I want on my own computer, I paid enough money for it, and potentially the DVD film, in the first place.
