The best outcome for users would be if EME is not worked on at all. But given the fact that it actually lies on the interest of copyright holders and content providers (not users nor browsers), it certainty doesn't have any place inside W3C. An "Open Web" organization is not a place where you would expect that should make technical recommendations that benefit copyright-holder over user rights. -- Nikos Roussos http://www.roussos.cc
