   In "Peer-to-Peer Networking and Digital Rights Management: How Market Tools Can Solve Copyright Problems," Michael A. Einhorn and Bill Rosenblatt illustrate how P2P technology and DRM can coexist peacefully in a market system, essentially quashing the complaints of consumer advocates who argue that DRM puts too much control in the hands of copyrights holders.
   ...
   Einhorn and Rosenblatt argue that these market operations are greatly preferable to government technology controls or mandatory compulsory licensing schemes for both producers and consumers. They write that "an overly protective system of copyright is a detriment in the eyes of consumers who have grown accustomed to a range of copying capabilities, legally fair or not."
   
   Ultimately, the authors conclude that "the government should act to protect property rights, including copyrights, but it should not pick winners or discourage any technology from competing in the new marketplace."
