We are getting reports of YouTube rolling out an experiment to some accounts where normal videos only have DRM formats available on the tv (TVHTML5) Innertube client.
This is not limited to yt-dlp. Tests have been run with the same account on various official YouTube TV clients (PS3, web browser, apple tv) and they are also only getting DRM formats for videos.
We live in hell-world.
Theyre adding DRM to videos they don’t own. Sounds like a lawsuit
They do own them, though. That’s what happens when you upload content to Youtube. Or virtually any other website, for that matter.
Nope. The person who uploads the video owns the copyright/IP. Seems like they should have say in if theres DRM on their IP.
They most certainly have this covered in ToS. IP law is not about actual creators’ rights.
Terms and conditions. What’s yours is theirs.
