Unfortunately, DRM has a terrible track record. In the world of free online distribution of content, how else can creators protect their rights? For example, DRM is what keeps movies purchased on iTunes inside of iTunes.įrom the perspective of rights-holders, it sounds like a decent solution to a troubling problem. DRM tries to solve this problem by making it impossible to use content in specific ways. They can copy it a million times and sell it on the street for five bucks, save it to their hard drive, share it on the web and more. When content is distributed on a disk without any kind of DRM, the end user can do anything they want with it.
DRM, or Digital Rights Management, is a software solution to a copyright problem.
