Apple on DRM: Its Relevance to Our Virtual Trust Paper
Sam and I noted in our Virtual Trust (VT) paper that DRM was used to create the necessary trust in order for Apple to sell electronic music.
Slashdot quotes Jobs as saying:
Jobs further notes:
Sam and I stated that DRM was used to create the necessary Virtual Trust relationships to enable electronic music. We did not say that DRM was the only mechanism that may be used to create Virtual Trust.
We wrote that,
DRM is used to create and enforce the existing music industry policy and their current requirements. Should this change, then naturally the VT mechanisms will change to protect the data to the extent to which the music industry feels comfortable.
VT will still be used to create new revenue streams and support older ones. It’s just that the mechanisms in the case may change. This change of security mechanisms is consistent with our paper.
