	Digital rights management - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Beyond the existing legal restrictions which copyright law imposes on the owner of the physical copy of a work, most DRM schemes can and do enforce additional restrictions at the sole discretion of the media distributor (which may or may not be the same entity as the copyright holder).
		DRM systems currently employed are not time limited in this way, and although it would be possible to create such a system (under compulsory escrow agreements, for example), there is currently no mechanism to remove the copy control systems embedded into works once they enter the public domain, after the term of copyright expires.
		DRM has been used by organizations such as the British Library in its secure electronic delivery service to permit worldwide access to substantial numbers of rare (and in many cases unique) documents which, for legal reasons, were previously only available to authorized individuals actually visiting the Library's document centre at Boston Spa in England.

		Business processes for managing tangible assets are accepted worldwide, having developed over the last 600 years, and are designed to measure revenue against the cost of assets consumed.
		It is therefore focused on measuring and identifying, perhaps incorporating facets of DRM but essentially focusing on the “inclusive” aspect of managing digital intellectual property; in other words the measurement and recording of access and consumption of assets.
		Vitally, to properly manage a digital asset or product, DM needs to be dynamic and flexible to permit alteration to any aspect of control over an asset after its deployment, preferably without being constrained by connectivity issues.

	Digital rights management : DRM
		Digital rights management or digital restrictions management, commonly abbreviated DRM, is an umbrella term for any of several arrangements by which the usage of copyrighted data by someone who has purchased a copy of it may be restricted by the copyright holder.
		In contrast to existing legal restrictions which copyright status imposes on the owner of a copy of such data, DRM would allow additional restrictions to be imposed solely at the discretion of the copyright holder, through hardware and software code under the copyright holder's control.

		The current debate in many countries of the world regarding digital rights management (DRM) has illustrated the inevitable conclusion of technology mandates in law: a world where all digital media technology is either forbidden or compulsory.

		The so-called Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), passed by the United States Congress in 1998, is an example.

		The technical idea underlying treacherous computing is that the computer includes a digital encryption and signature device, and the keys are kept secret from you.

	Confusing Words and Phrases that are Worth Avoiding - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
		The use of the word "rights" in this term is propaganda, designed to lead you unawares into seeing the issue from the viewpoint of the few that impose the restrictions, while ignoring that of the many on whom the restrictions are imposed.
		This word carries the implication of preventing destruction or suffering; therefore, it encourages people to identify with the owner and publisher who benefit from copyright, rather than with the users who are restricted by it.
		You can be more precise, and prevent confusion, by saying either "distributing copies of a program for a fee" or "imposing proprietary restrictions on the use of a program," depending on what you mean.

		Too much DRM serves to restrict the rights of content users in ways I consider unreasonable and inequitable.
		I recognize the necessity of DRM for some forms of econtent distribution, but DRM doesn't have to be abusive.
		Well-designed, well-implemented DRM can offer producers some protection while giving content buyers and users the flexibility and yes, protection of our rights, that we expect.

		A group of electronics makers and movie studios moved the rollout of digital TV a step ahead Tuesday with a preliminary agreement on copy protection for high-definition broadcasts and digital TV sets.
		But they also caution that it's just one of a laundry list of issues that must be addressed before Hollywood would be willing to feed the pipeline for the new broadcast standard without fear of its products being pirated.
		Another issue for home-theater users is that the new standard cannot easily be used for recording, as the video is uncompressed and far too demanding for current and even near-future digital recorders.
