  • How do I use VLC to playback DRM based video's? Onlything I can seem to play it on is Windows Media Player so I'm lacking features and simplicity some of these other players I want to play this stuff on have? Look at MP3's they don't have this kinda problem, any standard player will play just fine?

  • From a developer point of view: DRM disabled my desire to develop a simple multimedia application that plays video and audio with that type of content. From a consumer point of view: I also stopped watching the content normally, and opted for simpler online solutions. Not only that, half my existing players aren't fully DRM compatible, thus, won't play stuff properly.
