> So the Web either gets DRM, or Hollywood makes content available on proprietary platforms that provide it. DRM in the Web will be a proprietary platform! The EME proposal is a proposal to make the former open Web depend on proprietary platforms. The actual DRM is not specified (how could it be?) and it only proposes an API the browser should provide for the proprietary binary blob DRM. This is a really horrible step and an attack on the open Web! I'd much rather have Netflix and Hollywood use a completely proprietary DRM platform for their streaming services than them ruining the Web.
