I think it's more that they are DRM obsessed and don't give two flying ducks about Linux. If Linux were important, their DRM would work on it. For one I blame them, for the other I don't.
I have to admit I just don't care that much anymore. In the spectrum of things I have the time and energy to really care about, DRM has fallen off the list. I want to watch The Mandalorian, and damn; it was pretty great.
- shmerl 7y agoMy point is simple, DRM-free services have no issues with video on Linux, because video doesn't really depend on the platform. Video is video everywhere. As long as they aren't using some crazy custom codecs that no one has support for, it will work. DRM on the other hand is a platform dependent junk. So quite naturally it limits use cases which work with it.
- EpicEng 7y agoThat is not in any way untrue... but I understand why they don't care :)
- shmerl 7y agoWell, they don't need to care (about supporting DRM), they just need to stop being DRM freaks to begin with and start releasing DRM-free. That's the only real fix :) But of course, it's Disney we are talking about. They never learn.
