If you're accessing via a personal computer at all you're already in a fairly small percentage of users.
The smart TV and set top box ecosystem work fine, and that's where the users are.
- realusername 2y agoI was actually generous by picking a computer, with the amount of cheap and non updatable smart TVs, I doubt that more than 20% work with the strongest DRM. And then if that's the case, it's either piracy or buying a new TV if you want the best quality.

DRM doesn't care that you're on the latest patch level with all CVEs patched, only that your system is vaguely "secure" (ie. has a TEE, even if it's full of holes). The netflix app works on phones with Android 5 from over a decade ago, so similarly old smart TVs are probably fine as well. Failing that, they can buy an up-to-date roku/fire stick for $25.
- Mindwipe 2y agoPretty much any brand name smart TV supports the "strongest" DRM and has full UHD Netflix et al support, and has done since about 2016/2017.
