Digital Rights Management

Written by Thom Leggett


Asrepparttar internet progresses in both popularity and structure, DRM is going to become very important in moving away fromrepparttar 118794 early free-for-all towards a more paid-for model. However, there is an argument overrepparttar 118795 degree of restriction of freedom that DRM appears to lead toward.

Copyright has always included an element of ‘fair use’, which givesrepparttar 118796 consumer a certain degree of freedom. For example, you are allowed to quote or criticise another person’s work or, in certain countries (not inrepparttar 118797 UK despite what many seem to believe), copy works for personal use. Many people fear that these arerepparttar 118798 sort of rights that would be trampled by pervasive DRM.

Onrepparttar 118799 other hand, many of those same people agree that some form of DRM is undoubtedly required ifrepparttar 118800 commerce of ideas, concepts and abstract works is to progress.

This much-discussed problem is at least partly due torepparttar 118801 digital age we live in: it is now perfectly possible to make fully functional copies of work, at a fraction ofrepparttar 118802 cost of developing it yourself.

You only have to look atrepparttar 118803 phenomenal number of illegal music files and software packages available onrepparttar 118804 internet to realise what an issue this is for people who make a living from something that can be distributed digitally.

Some people get a bit hysterical when they hearrepparttar 118805 term DRM, as they tend to assume that it means ‘big brother’ style controls on what we can see and hear onrepparttar 118806 net. Butrepparttar 118807 concept of protecting digital content andrepparttar 118808 intellectual property and/or copyright contained within, has been around for a while. Copy protection of CDs, software (e.g. activation on windows XP) and computer games are all examples of primitive DRM systems.

DRM can be taken much further than this though and be used to control content on a more fine-grained level. For example, DRM applied to music files could allow you to play them onrepparttar 118809 computer you downloaded them on, and make one copy to play inrepparttar 118810 car, but then deny further copying or playing on other devices. Alternatively, it could allow you to hearrepparttar 118811 song once before self-destructing. In effect, any method of distribution and licensing thatrepparttar 118812 copyright owner can conceive can in theory be enforced.
