&gt; This system, &quot;Encrypted Media Extensions&quot; (EME) uses standards-defined code to funnel video into a proprietary container called a &quot;Content Decryption Module.&quot; For a new browser to support this new video streaming standard -- which major studios and cable operators are pushing for -- it would have to convince those entertainment companies or one of their partners to let them have a CDM, or this part of the &quot;open&quot; Web would not display in their new browser.<p>Isn&#x27;t this just a standardization of the status quo, with Flash&#x2F;Silverlight? Why is it that I always feel like I&#x27;m being sold a bill of goods when I read EFF pieces?
