[Bug 20964] EME supports content that depends on servers with a finite life.

--- Comment #14 from Joe Steele <steele@adobe.com> ---
It is reasonable to stipulate that the EME supports content that depends on
servers with a finite life. However since it also supports content that does
*not* rely on servers with a finite life, there is a clear provision for a
sunset on the restrictions. This does not seem to be a bug. 

If this were a bug, I think you would agree it would make sense to prevent this
in other aspects of the Web Platform. However I could generate dynamic content
using the existing Web Platform that would have this restriction, i.e. when the
server goes away the content will not be viewable any more without further user
circumvention. It would not meet our requirements in other respects
(performance, compatibility with existing technology, difficulty of
circumvention, etc.) but it would exhibit the behavior you are describing.
