However, here is where DRM currently falls down. The distribution and licensing can only be enforced in theory because in order to work, content has to be viewed / played on a device or with software that supports particular flavour of DRM that you wish to apply. For example, as soon as you allow a file to be burnt to a standard CD, you have lost all control of it and limitless copies can again be made.

We arrive at a strange Catch 22 situation, whereby DRM is useless unless everybody adopts same system, but people won’t start to adopt a system that restricts their use so severely in first instance.

The lack of widely available, reliable DRM is given by record industry as a main reason for not launching online distribution channels themselves. But DRM won’t become widely available until music industry adopts it for online distribution.

As more and more intellectual property and copyright is distributed through email and web, there is a greater need for a way of controlling this content. Slowly but surely, DRM technologies will become embedded into more and more software applications and hardware devices. As a recent example, Apple iTunes is an online music store which embeds DRM into songs downloaded. Microsoft Office 2003 also embeds DRM enabling technologies, as does Windows Media Player.

An overly restrictive DRM solution will scare consumers away from protected content; but if content can be distributed freely with no reimbursement for creator, then innovation and development and sharing of new and exciting ideas will be stifled.

In end, answer to issues surrounding DRM will have to be a delicate balancing act between consumers on one hand, and copyright owners and intellectual property creators on other.
