9.4 Managing and playing DRM audio files

Where will I encounter DRM?

DRM (Digital Right Management by Microsoft) is a solution by the music industry for

protecting digital contents against piracy. At the cost of sometimes painful compromises in consumer

friendliness, the market has agreed on this method: digital rights management defines how often a piece of

music can be burned to a CD or stored on an external computer. Or, in the worst case, how long you can

listen to a track. The fact that the DRM protection has been developed by Microsoft provides are a number

of advantages for the customer: better interoperability between devices and greater competition between

content platforms. Each standardisation has its advantages and disadvantages.

DRM audio content can be found on virtually all platforms that support online music purchasing. Portals

such as Musicload (musicload.de) or the Napster subscription service (napster.com) use this form of protec-

tion. A wide range of commercial Internet radio stations also use DRM to avoid licensing disputes with the

music industry.

Incidentally, there is no DRM protection for the MP3 format.

And now? How does DRM work with the NOXON?

The NOXON is well-suited for DRM content, as it supports the most common DRM standard in version 10—

Microsoft Windows Media DRM 10 (for WMA audio files). To allow the NOXON to play DRM content, you

need server software capable of the following:

A - verifying that the tracks were legitimately purchased and the licenses are valid

B - providing tracks for playback on DRM-enabled devices

C - managing the capabilities and rights of the playback devices

The NOXON supports the prescribed disabling of the digital output to prevent lossless copying. When listen-

ing to DRM content, it may therefore be necessary to use an analogue connection in addition to the digital

line.

Another effect is that the NOXON will remain silent if it encounters a DRM method it doesn't support. At

present, the NOXON supports DRM10 only. Thus it is not possible to play tracks purchased at the iTunes

Music Store, for example.

Please note: when it comes to DRM, the NOXON is absolutely passive. It will not infect existing files

with DRM or make any other changes to played content under any circumstances.

As was explained above, DRM-protected contents are made available by the server software. Since the

strengths of TwonkyMusic are not in this area and Digital Rights Management has not been implemented

(though this may soon change with a new version), we would like to provide you with a few more details

about Windows Media Connect—an alternative to TwonkyMusic that does include DRM and consequently is

capable of playing back DRM-protected contents! Windows Media Connect is a free Microsoft UPnP server.
