Embedded DRM technology supports Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Discretix has demonstrated its digital rights management (DRM) technology
| running on a Trolltech Qtopia-based Linux phone. The Discretix Multi-Scheme
| DRM Client can be used to establish a trusted environment for distributing
| premium content to devices with or without embedded cryptographic hardware
| co-processors, the company said.

Seems like a case of "thanks, but no thanks."

Torvalds' Linux is ready to go green
,----[ Quote ]
| Torvalds also revealed he is glad to see the apparent demise of music
| protected by digital rights management (DRM). In an interview last year,
| Torvalds said he believed DRM was a "lot of hot air": a comment that he says
| has now been proved right.
|
| "I think I have been vindicated somewhat. DRM is so anti-consumer that I
| don't see it really ever taking off," said Torvalds.
