Title from the article. Interesting article, with some good words from our DRM-free favorite Cory Doctorow.

Aussie copyright law gives us the right to circumvent protections in order to make copies to watch on a device the original can't be played on.

Linux out of the box is remarkably incompatible with DRM protected content and so makes an excellent thing on which one might want to watch, listen to, or read a thing
