DRM licenses are used to protect videos from illegal downloading, same as what you get on Netflix.

Is the license a piece of software or simply a license stating it protects the video. Not really familiar with this aspect of video.
Does that mean you need one for each video? What happens if you don't purchase one for each video?
It would still be copyright protected by copyright law, so what is the difference.
Thank you kindly for your patience in explaining.
Hi @CarrieJ, Thank you for your response.
The DRM feature inside Adilo allows you to 'encrypt' your videos and protect it from piracy. Let's say you have a course website where people sign up and watch your videos, you don't want these videos getting out in the public. Currently, your students can download the video and share with their friends. With DRM protection, the video becomes encrypted and can no longer be downloaded.
When your students request to view the video, our server issues them a licensing token (essentially a decryption key) for that view session that is used to decrypt the video. Only after that is the video playable. Browsers and OS vendors have native support for DRM, so DRM-protected contents are not downloadable.
One thing to pay attention to is the number of tokens available for your account. It is limited. So, we generally advise to only use DRM on priced contents that people pay for. Public domain contents should not be DRM-protected.
I hope this answers your questions.
Thanks!

One other question...
Does it change the experience for the customer...meaning do they have to do anything special to watch the video? Do they have to use a special passcode or do anything or can they just go to the video and click play?
Thanks so much for your help.
