Their main problem is that Netflix are pushing for DRM to be in the HTML5 standard.
This is indeed a complicated issue and could end up badly for the internet as a whole.
- dubcanada 13y agoSomeone hasn't even read the spec, it allows you to implement DRM. But it in itself is NOT DRM.
- muyuu 13y agoAnd that's what they are apparently pushing for, to be implemented in the spec (maybe so it cannot be blocked? I'm not up to date with the details).
- wmf 13y agoThe entire purpose of EME is DRM, and EME plugins (that are actually used) will only be used to implement DRM. I believe the spec is deliberately obfuscated to try to defuse opposition, but that only worked for so long.
