Sony should be feeling pretty desparate
Sony should be feeling pretty desparate: they will replace your rootkit-embedded CD with a DRM-free CD via mail (they’ll pay for the postage both ways), but in the interim—since that’ll take a few weeks and they’re desperate to boost their devastated PR—they’ll give you an authorization code to download the album in MP3 format. I was gonna say “hooray!” but I’m so pissed at Sony, it takes much more to make things even again. [via]
