I think what would happen is that the companies would carry on, it would
work through the HTML5 video element in pretty much the same way as it has
been specced so far.

The only differences would be that:
- The W3C isn't seen to accept DRM.
- The process of specifying it would not be as open or robust.

I don't think making protected content out-of-scope would have any
practical effect.
