DRM is controversial and rightfully so, as consumers avoid it wherever and whenever it crops up. Ez-takes and its constant insistance on DRM, is more of a hindrance for any filmmaker and producer. The people who would use download features are realistically not there: they download from p2p sites anyways. DRM does not actually exist, because any content can be downgraded to analog and then digitzed again; thus ez-takes' claims of DRM are misleading, if mot false. For independent producers other and better options such as filmbay ,brosmedia and xing are available. Their networking and distribution features are well beyond the standard fare, suggesting a web 3.0 notion. Indy producers need useful tools. Time will tell how things will pan out, but at least there are some good choices out there.

However, when EZTakes claims that they offer unbreakable DRM and digital copy protection, such a claim cannot be sustained. DRM does not exist, since every digital file can be down-converted to analog and then redigitized: EZTakes is basically lying here. Ron Corrington EZTakes is interesting, that’s true.
