Whether or not Encrypted Media Extensions(EME) is included in HTML5 SHOULD NOT be construed as a referendum on DRM. The HTML5 standard is not the place to determine if something is ethically/morally good, advancing humankind, or will even work.
If some orgs or people want a means to retrict the playing of media in HTML5 by downloading keys from a license server then so be it. The HTML5 standard should be as inclusive as it needs to be to represent the needs of all parties. If enough parties desire this functionality then who are we to say they cannot or should not have it.
