Microsoft Planning Digital Restrictions Server

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Monday September 16, 2002 @05:01AM from the one-server-infrastructure-solution-to-bind-them-all dept.

Jon James writes "Microsoft is pushing further into digital rights management with a plan for a DRM server due to go into beta testing later this year, eWeek is reporting. Microsoft has already applied for a patent for a DRM operating system but would not say if the DRM server would be based on this. In an interview last week with eWeek, Jim Allchin, Microsoft's group vice president for platforms, said a DRM server is but one of three server infrastructure applications coming next year."
