I just replaced the OS on my laptop with Microsoft Windows Vista (tm). So far, I'm fairly impressed with it. As I'm rebuilding my laptop and installing my software I come across this nonsense:
Mind you, I purchased this software via Digital River almost 1.5 years ago and have used it very successfully. Why is software that I legally purchased preventing me from installing it? I used to think that DRM was a minor annoyance. Now... I believe DRM is pure evil...
Well, I emailed the folks at Digital River and pleaded my case. They then looked up my account information and sent me everything I needed to get my copy of MS Money working again. But still, what a pain in the butt.
