Amazon Unbox download service.
BoingBoing have a great expose on the Terms Of Use that apply to (US only)Amazon Unbox service.
This puts my recent gripe about iTunes DRM in the shade. I find it truly astonishing that a global brand would risk their reputation by releasing something with an agreement like that attached. They obviously must have calculated the risk of a Sony rootkit backlash and decided first-to-market was more important (they beat Apple by one week - no coincidence on the launch date there).
