What changed in 2006?

If he shares this with another computer of his/hers (or reformats), I presume they have to transfer a license file of some sort, right?

If he do so, he would just have to enter his password once again (from the new computer). Then the DRM server will be connected and the thing will store a 100 year license on that new computer. So, again, the only thing you have to do is to enter your password ONCE.

I don't know about VLC player or linux/mac players, you can ask around. I would like to learn about this, too.

Hmmm. I suppose that would work if the DRM server kept the customer in its records even after they cancelled the membership (for when the hard drive crashed or the license file got corrupted). But if not I can see where this is annoying for the customer and where they would prefer non-DRM movies.

If sites would do this and actually retain the necessary information and say promise to do so for X years, this would probably help DRM for porn become easier for surfers to swallow.
