In Backspin this week the tale of how I hunted down a piece of music by a Norwegian composer and in the process learned, once again, that the quality of customer experience on the Web sites is still more-or-less ignored by many sites. I also learned that Digital Rights Management is still a bad joke. Oh, and I learned that Microsoft forgets to patch things – like the foundation of their DRM system under Windows Media Player 11. Pathetic.
