Implement DRM content protection

[litemover]

I have one more comment to make and that is that this all of course would be an optional feature that you could use at your discression, so what harm would it do to have it?

i have thought about this kindof thing -

there is no quicktime or operating system level support for anything like this.
which means any mechanism would have to be sort of proprietary - and possibly difficult to manage.

the main problem being everything would have to be converted to some intermediate file format - then it would not be viewable outside the target application - not viewable by any other application - even if you were the owner/creator of the footage -

I know it is possible to do, as the Mbox has this exact feature, you can protect your files and they wont play on another machine. I dont know exactly how they do it, as I havent used that feature yet, but I know its there.
