Windows Media DRM

Windows Media DRM is a Digital Rights Management service for the Windows Media platform. It is designed to provide delivery of audio and/or video content over an IP network to a PC or other playback device in such a way that the distributor can control how that content is used.

WMDRM includes the following components:

  • Windows Media Rights Manager (WMRM) SDK for packaging content and issuing licenses
  • Windows Media Format SDK (WMF SDK) for building Windows applications which support DRM and the Windows Media format
  • Windows Media DRM for Portable Devices (WMDRM-PD) for supporting offline playback on portable devices (Janus)
  • Windows Media DRM for Network Devices (WMDRM-ND) for streaming protected content to devices attached to a home network (Cardea)
