Quote - Randy hasn't said anything about DRM, that's a supposition that people are making. What he did say in one of his latest posts was > Quote - No matter what method we choose to distribute our content, you will be connecting to DL it... after which you can check it, quarantine it, back it up or make pancakes for it! 

which appears to be pretty close to an assurance that we will be able to back content up and move it to another machine, and hopefully reorganise the user files to suit our needs. Later he comments that having it on an offline machine will stop it detecting updates, which again strongly implies there's no plan to force any kind of validation or DRM system or that the content will be available for use only when connected to the web. I'm little more keen than any of you on cloud-based systems, or things that phone home for validation, given the reliability of BT but what little solid information we have doesn't yet point to the prospective DAZ system having the most serious issues - it sounds more like a delivery system than an actual management system.

How is this store going to know what is in my runtime if it isn't scanning it for DAZ content?  If it is just looking at my purchase history, there is no need to touch my computer, it can simply reset my available downloads.
