DRM Stalemate
posted by scubacuda on Friday November 07, @02:05AM
from the dept.
Security News.com reviews the current DRM landscape.
"Incompatible anticopying technologies known as digital rights management (DRM) are being applied to everything from music files to Microsoft Word documents, and the lack of rules that can make these schemes work together is increasingly prompting calls for a standards revolution.
Says Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) founder Leonardo Chiariglione,
"Unless users can access content without all the hassle of dealing with different digital rights management systems, DRM is a nonstarter. The alternative is a digital media stalemate, where nothing moves."
