Banned beans: can Keurig kill coffee pirates with DRM? (theverge.com)

Better solution: tiny RFID tags with a unique ID and public-key authentication. Impossible to fake and dead cheap to implement.

DRM for Coffee Makers? This is madness. Anything. But. This.

It'll be hacked, everything always is.

In the end, I'll prefer something like http://www.home-barista.com/brewing/cory-dcu-dcl-coffee-brew... Coffee before DRM. :)
