<< You people are acting like this approach is actually something new. Intuit has been doing similar with Quickbooks and Quicken forever.

No this is to much like Divx vs DVD, Divx had to get permission from the mothership to play a movie where dvd didn't. WPA will have some bugs meaning people will be locked out of there computers that shouldn't be.
