Music DRM - The State of the Art and Beyond
Generator Research Limited, March 2006, Pages: 20
- Coral Consortium - Interoperability Initiatives - Detailed Description - Architecture Diagrams - Market Developments - Online and Mobile
Drawing upon in-depth discussions with senior-level representatives at InterTrust, Microsoft and ContentGuard, this report explains the history of DRM standardisation efforts, summarises the current status of the relevant DRMs, both fixed and mobile and then provides a detailed description of the most interesting initiative in the market today: the DRM interoperability framework being developed by the Coral Consortium.
Closely aligned with OMA DRM V2.0, Coral is an ambitious project aimed at the consumer media market which has received the blessing of the recorded music industry and practically all the key consumer electronics brands. First announced in October 2004, the consortium is expected to issue a first release of specifications within a few months.
But is Coral simply too ambitious? Perhaps a more likely solution is an interoperability agreement between Apple and Microsoft at some point in the future? On the other hand, perhaps Apple will maintain its current momentum and emerge as the dominant force in the market, marginalising all others?
This report offers a balanced assessment of six plausible market development trajectories, of which a Coral-based DRM interoperability regime is just one. The report goes on to outline a number of future developments in DRM based on existing market trends.
