Think you really own the movies, eBooks and video games you've bought or downloaded? Think again.  Updated:22 Jul 2010Author:Ben Bridges 01.Digital Rights Management
Not long ago, you could buy a recording or piece of software and use it as you pleased – you could give it away, sell it or make a copy for your own use. Advances in technology mean it’s become much easier to copy digital media such as music, movies and computer games – and because they’re digital, all those copies are just as good as the original. Consequently, copyright owners have become more anxious to prevent copying and other unapproved uses; Digital Rights Management (DRM) is the way they attempt to do so. |

PETALING JAYA: Even hypermarkets cannot hold prices down with tags on essential items on the uptrend over the past seven months.
This was revealed in a survey of 37 essential goods at three major hypermarket chains.
The survey by the Consumer Research and Resource Centre (CRRC) over a six-month period from last September recorded the average pricing of selected items in three hypermarket chains. Items surveyed included chicken, beef, fish such as tenggiri, kembung and cencaru; vegetables such as tomatoes, sawi, kankung and French beans; as well as ginger, shallots, potatoes, eggs, wheat flour, coffee powder, creamer, sardines and rice. |
