I just listened to the The Copyright Clearance Center’s Beyond the Book podcast episode #205. Here’s the description:
The viability of the entertainment and media industry’s future rests on its ability to manage content and control distribution, while making it available to an ever larger customer base. At the November 2010 Digital Hollywood conference in New York City, Chris Kenneally explored the potential for Digital Rights Management (DRM) and content protection in the evolving media landscape with a panel of senior industry executives.
His guests were Mridula Palat, Director, RSG Media Systems; Michael Petricone, Sr. VP,Consumer Electronics Assoc.; Kent E. Sahin, President & CEO, REAL Software Systems; Alex Terpstra, CEO, Civolution; and Steve Tranter, VP, NDS.
If you’re interested in how the “content” folks view DRM and other rights-related issue this will be a well-spent 54 minutes.
