DRM is a group of anti-circumvention technological measures(TM), e.g. digital-only token and audio watermark. TM creates incompatibility between digital materials, including copyrighted and public domain materials (DM). The purpose of DRM is to control and limit how DM are used and accessed. Instead of purely relying on legal tools, content providers and companies use TM to protect DM. DRM limits availability to the DM by requiring a particular platform or machine, particular keys, or validity for a certain time period. Thus, DRM is used as an anti-competition tool by businesses, and it can protect and control DM in a stricter manner than that permitted by copyright statues. For instance, DRM limits the fair use to the users who have legally obtained such DM. DRM is also expanding to the physical world instead of only digital world, i.e. by using DRM-like technologies.
