Why would that be?

OpenSSL is a very good open implementation of secure stuff as well.

DRM just means that a private key (which is not open of course, doesn't
need to be) is used to unlock a file... and if the DRM algorithm is any
good, publishing it (the algo) openly won't do it any harm.

But a reason for having it on the firmware would probably be because it
otherwise would be a method to circumvent the DRM (by capturing the
unlocked stream).

I don't need or want it either btw, experience showed that any real CD
(or open format) lives much longer for me than closed stuff.
