The One Reason to Hate Windows Vista

I decided this evening that I wanted to watch a movie. I went to the library, and checked out a DVD. When I tried to play it, I got the following error message:

DRM: Data Restrictions Management. The one and only reason to hate Vista. If I had tried to play the DVD on an XP machine, it would have worked fine. There is no reason this message should be coming up. I could be somewhat understanding if it were an HD movie, but it's just a standard DVD. This was one thing that I had been worried about through the development of Vista. It was and still is a concern for many other people.

Vista is definitely a huge improvement over XP. There have been several occasions where I have asked someone why they haven't switched to Vista yet, and their response is simply, "DRM."
