For any of you who are looking for an overview of Digital Rights Management and content protection, this is a great show. This week’s guest if Brian Baker, the CEO of Widevine Technologies. Brian gives us some background on his company, which is multi-platform and network content protection provider. Mike Wolf of ABI Research asks Brian about the differences around the traditional conditional access market and DRM, as well as how the music DRM market differs from that of the premium video market. Some highlights:

-Brian talks about his discussions with music labels who are interested in using non-player and digital marketplace specific DRM

- Brian talks about how studios are looking not only to protect their premium digital video assets, but also looking to content protection to protect the integrity of the embedded advertising in the video

-Brian talks about efforts around in-home distribution and protecting content as it moves from device to device

Overall its a very interesting call.
