Boycott DRM'd CD's
I know, online petitions are useless, pointless, without merit, and a waste of time. Except for this one. Get on it.

Quote:
One day left to sign pledge to boycott CDs with DRM
Gavin sez, "Just wanted to update you on the great success of FreeCulture.org's pledge to boycott DRM CDs. In under one month, more than 3,500 people have signed the pledge to never buy a DRM CD, ever. We have well surpassed our initial goal of 500 pledges and given people a positive step to take to show their disgust with an industry that wants to sell us less and treat us like criminals. There is just one day left to sign the pledge within our one-month deadline. If you haven't, please take a moment to stand up for your rights."

The response is fairly measley to this point. I assume they're terrible publicists.
