Video Service subscribers can now watch videos protected by Widevine on their Mobiles, Tablets, STBs or Laptops with various OS and browsers. The list also includes gaming consoles, connected TVs, and other devices. With this agreement, Aspiro is also certified as a DRM implementation partner, fully able to help out any partner that wants to setup Widevine DRM onto their own local TV/VoD platforms.
Widevine’s DRM solutions are used by the largest media companies, such as Warner Bros, VUDU, Netflix, YouTube video hosting and by the major IPTV operators to protect streamed and downloaded digital content against illegal copying. In 2010, Widevine was acquired by Google.
