I believe the actual facts are...

1. Rights holders insist on time limited DRM solution.
2. Only Microsoft supports a time limited DRM.
3. Therefore, in order to conform to point 1, BBC have to use
Microsoft based DRM.

I accept axiom 1.

Axiom 2 is incorrect and can be proved to be so.
Proof:

2a: If Microsoft's is the only scheme who support time limited DRM
there can not exist a scheme such that:
- scheme is not Microsoft's
- scheme supports time limited DRM

2b: OpenIPMP (http://sourceforge.net/projects/openipmp/) is not
Microsoft's scheme.

2c: OpenIPMP (http://sourceforge.net/projects/openipmp/) supports time
limited DRM

2b and 2c contradict the hypothesis in 2a, thus axiom 2 can not be correct.

Axiom 3 is incorrect.
It's reasoning relied on Axiom 2 which was proved to be incorrect (see above).

PS sorry about the double post but the DRM software I was taking quite
a while to download.
