This morning I came across this article on Slashdot, about a couple of record companies that are including download codes with their vinyl records that allow the purchaser to download DRM-free MP3s of the tracks on the purchased record. When asked why the files were not restricted with DRM, one of the companies' co-founder was quoted as saying, "Making a legal, paid-for version of the file less useful than a copied or pirated one doesn't make sense."
I think we can safely say that is the most intelligent statement made by a record company exec ever.
