Abstract

The battle between digital entertainment content protection and content usage has been heating up. Copy protection, watermarks, digital fingerprinting, and conditional access are all technologies used to enforce copyright protection. Yet, attempting to stop the 12 billion illegal P2P downloads occurring annually in the US is being called pointless. What is needed is a new approach to monetizing digital content.

This research briefing provides a detailed examination of the shift from content protection to a two-pronged strategy that involves digital rights information management, as well competing with P2P file sharing services. In-Stat’s primary research identifies consumer expectations and content consumption behavior. The outlined digital rights management strategy has the potential not only to create a market where content producer and consumer expectations are aligned, but one that can generate an added $2.5 billion in annual revenue by migrating P2P file sharers to legal services.
