- anonymousiam 2y agoTrue, but the streaming provider had a CHOICE to enforce that requirement, and the user experience has suffered as a result of their choice.
- FelipeCortez 2y agoThe streaming provider doesn’t have a choice. They must implement and prove they have a working DRM solution or publishers won’t hand over the streamable media

Remember the meme joking about all the unskippable bullshit people had to watch on a DVD, when they could just download a pirated copy and press play :)
