Flash media Server 3 - DRM support?

[panel]

Hi

I heard that it Flash media Server 3 will support DRM, but based on this list of (all features) I would say not :confused:

All features

So question is does FMS3 support DRM?

Depends on how you define DRM, it's become a term loosely attributed to many uses of encrypted or protected content.

The content served by FMS (e.g .flv) is unaltered (i.e has no embedded cryptographic encoding) but can be streamed across an encrypted connection and not cached. I wouldn't consider this as true DRM, if the .flv was available as a standalone file, it couldn't be protected from further distribution.
