The major players of the industry have DRM keys, and browser competition is hindered by only allowing access to DRM protected contents to some other vetted major players.
Nasty situation. But I guess it makes sense from the POV of the entities that want to protect their contents with DRM (if DRM was opensource... its use wouldn't make much sense)
