Hi all,
=20
I have had the most bizarre emails back and forth with a guy selling a =
video on how to ride a bike. He is selling the video only as a Digital =
Rights Management CD. =20
=20
However, he thinks that our patrons should checkout the CD from us and =
then pay his company a fee for a license to "unlock" the disc for use.
=20
Below is the conversion I had with him via email. Is it just me or is =
he completely off his rocker. I understand protecting your property but =
this is crazy.
=20
Take Care,

It is unfortunate for your patrons that you don't get the point. You =
will, of course, be seeing more such digital rights management in the =
future by content providers, not less.
We are a for-profit company.
Take care. --Reginald

What is the point of having a CD available for checkout when our library =
patron then has to pay to use the disc? This makes no sense to me. =
Everything in our public library is free to use for all customers. If =
this is the case I don't want this item and request that you take me off =
your list of libraries with the pedal magic CD.
Best,
Myles
