DRM Holding Back 'Connected Home' Consumer Electronics Market
The Industry Analyst Reporter notes a report from Strategy Analytics that DRM is holding back consumer electronics companies from entering a 144-million device "connected home" market (DRM Conflicts Delay Lucrative 144 Million Device Market, Says Strategy Analytics).
According to the report, wider adoption of media-sharing devices will be delayed as long as content owners disagree between themselves on how they wish to benefit from DRM technologies. Technology providers, in turn, cannot develop a horizontal market for connected devices until major content providers have agreed on a common framework of DRM interoperability. [emphasis added]
It's not about the infringement, it's about control. My other comment: Only 144 million devices?
