ArsTechnica reports that Sony is at it again. Another DRM system relased to consumers with a security hole. Sony subsequently released a patch which itself had a security vulnerability. Ars suggests that Sony "drop the whole subject" of DRM. While that's unlikely to happen, this is good evidence that DRM should be developed on open standards using open source implementations so that it gets some proper testing instead of letting consumers beta test it.
