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)

Famous quotes containing the words windows and/or media:

    this frenzy,
    like bees stinging the heart all morning,
    will keep the angels
    with their windows open,
    wide as an English bathtub.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
