Is there a compelling reason to boycott WESTERN DIGITAL drives
BBC reports:
"One of the world's largest hard disk manufacturers has blocked its customers from sharing their media files online that are stored on networked drives.
Western Digital says the decision to block sharing of music and audio files is an anti-piracy effort.
The ban operates regardless of whether the files are copy-protected, or a user's own home-produced content."
I personally was about to purchase a whole clutch of Maxtor drives today but will hold off. What do you think?

The article refers to Western Digital Drives, not Maxtor
