The Digital Entertainment Content Ecosystem (DECE) – created to address DRM issues and a standard way for consumers to acquire content online – announced six new members during CES.
With the addition of Panasonic and Samsung, the initiative now includes five of the bigger TV manufacturers, six studios, five tech companies, and an array of other heavy-hitters connected to entertainment media.
DECE continues to navigate the tricky waters of identifying appropriate formats for streaming and downloading media in addition to the technical requirements for CE devices. The ultimate challenge is dealing with effective DRM while still providing consumers the most convenient access to their media.
