why switchfoot rocks

Switchfoot’s new album shipped with (weak) DRM on the album media – it’s that Sony “DRM” that installs a TSR under Windows that prevents you from ripping the album. Apparently, though, the band was very upset with the fact that DRM was included, and has posted a guide on how to get around the DRM. I’m glad to see a band standing up for the rights of their fans. I’ve been a fan of Switchfoot for quite some time, and I’m really glad to see them doing things like this. Now, if they will just drop Sony, and get a distributor that will let the band dictate what’s on the album..
