Digital Rights Management promises novel business models for the
distribution of and access to all kinds of digital content – from music
and
movies to text and software – while ensuring that the interests of
rights
holders are protected. Over the last year, DRM systems have been
introduced
in the U.S. as well as in various European markets with great success.
Increasingly, open standards-based DRM systems play a vital role in the
mobile sector. In autumn 2003, the German Parliament implemented the
European Copyright Directive of 2001, establishing the legal framework
for
DRM systems. Further reforms of European and German copyright law are
imminent.

Thus, the time is ripe for the 3rd Digital Rights Management Conference
2005. This conference is the third in a series of leading DRM
conferences in
Europe. It will summarise the present debate about DRM on a national and
international level. It will also create an interdisciplinary forum to
discuss economic, business, legal, technical and scientific questions as
well as policy issues surrounding DRM and the future of digital content.
Representatives of the media and IT industries, governments, user
associations, libraries, collecting societies, as well as artists,
attorneys, scientists, privacy and consumer protection advocates from
Germany, other European countries and the U.S. will discuss
controversial
issues and proposed solutions in the areas of Digital Rights Management,
Trusted Computing and alternative compensation systems.
