The PC industry has formed a new lobbying group, the Alliance for Digital Progress, "to fight Hollywood efforts to require anti-copying technology in digital entertainment devices," says AP. "Members of the new group say Hollywood's insistence on embedding anti-copying technology in devices would crimp product innovation — and trample consumers' rights." Founder members include Microsoft and Dell Computer.
