In a previous post I looked at making your photos available to others as prints or photo gifts.

Apple vs. Real: the pot calling the kettle black

Published by Bruce on August 21, 2004 in Mac. 0 responses

Real have hacked Apple's Fairplay digital rights management technology, as used to lock songs downloaded from the iTunes Music Store into iTunes player and iPod hardware.
