Google draws critics over their own digital rights management scheme for their video section,
Google has its own DRM ( digital rights management ) for their videos,
but a popular news site says,
Google is drawing criticism for its decision to use its own digital-rights management (DRM) system to control the distribution of copyright-protected videos in its new Google Video Store.
Google announced the Google Video Store last week at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada. Google’s own proprietary DRM technology represents a challenge to existing DRM systems from Microsoft and Apple, also used to control video distribution over the Internet.
By creating yet another DRM system, Google is restricting rather than enabling the distribution of content over the Internet, critics say.
