The U.S. digital rights management market size is expected to reach USD 7.78 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “U.S. Digital Rights Management Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report By Enterprise Size (Large Enterprise, Small & Medium Enterprise), By Application – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Digital Rights Management, or DRM, refers to the systematic application of technologies and strategies designed to control access to and usage of copyrighted digital content. Its primary function is to prevent unauthorized copying, distribution, and modification of various digital assets such as movies, music, e-books, software, and other proprietary information. By implementing these measures, content creators and owners can safeguard their intellectual property, ensure fair compensation for their work, and manage how their content is consumed in the digital sphere. This control is crucial for maintaining the value of digital assets and supporting diverse monetization models, from subscriptions to pay-per-view.

The U.S. digital rights management market is mature and highly dynamic, influenced by the nation's advanced digital economy and its position as a global leader in content creation. The pervasive adoption of digital technologies across all industries, coupled with a high rate of internet penetration and smartphone usage, has led to an immense volume of digital content being produced and consumed daily. This environment necessitates robust DRM solutions to combat the persistent threat of digital piracy and intellectual property theft, which can result in substantial financial losses for content owners. Furthermore, the stringent intellectual property laws in the U.S. compel businesses to invest in comprehensive DRM systems, driving continuous innovation and widespread adoption of these protection technologies across various applications, including streaming media, mobile gaming, and enterprise data security and cybersecurity.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
