Digital Rights Management (DRM)

When you download multimedia content available online, such as Java applications, these items may be subject to DRM restrictions. DRM, or digital rights management, is a system that defines how copyrighted multimedia content can be distributed and used.

DRM limits items to time-based or count-based usage settings. Time-based settings let you use the given item for a specified interval. Examples of time-based settings include being able to use an item for a specified number of days from the date of purchase, a specified number of days from the date that the item is first used, or a specified number of minutes. Count- based settings let you use an item for a specified number of times after you download it or for unlimited use.

Managing Items

Depending on how the third-party vendor has set rights for the given DRM item, you may be unable to perform some of the following tasks.
