Nothing lost in translation

I'm back from three days of dancing at the Saratoga Dance Flurry in a very good mood. That's what lots of oxygen will do for your cells. I kept up with email on the trip, thanks to pretty much ubiquitous airport/hotel/coffee shop wifi, but didn't follow any blogs.

This morning I've been catching up on those. Many of the writers seem to be in exceptionally good spirits (early spring fever?). I particularly enjoyed John Gruber's post at Daring Fireball, which is a translation of the Macrovision CEO's reply to Apple's recent "Thoughts on Music" about digital rights management.

As usual, the translation from Corporate-Speak to plain English made things considerably shorter; I thought Gruber's rendering of the opening paragraph was exceptionally succinct.
