- dthunt 15y agoI take issue with some of the thoughts I see echoed by this and other comments - that the real goal of encrypting video content is to prevent third parties from watching it off the wire, or that the reason we should have DRM is so that video files may be cached. The goal here is to break the end-user's ability to access the material at will.
