I wouldnt be suprised to see MP4 as the distribution method with
attached DRM (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=62723).
MP4 will be well supported by Windows, Apple and Linux and in other
devices such as PSP, Mobinote etc it is the default format.
I dont think your ever going to prevent someone building a bypass to DRM
but the BBC's method is the kind of thing that makes it less interesting
to crack... The obvious example to bring up is DVD Jon -vs- Apple iTunes
and the lessons you can take from this is that he only bothered because
it didnt work on linux..

With all this DRMed fun, I assume that something stops folk from just
screen capturing the rendered output and turning it back into an
un-DRMed MPEG2 stream? I'm not a windows user, but a quick Google
threw up <URL:http://www.hmelyoff.com/index.php?section=4> as a
possible tool to let you do this; I'm sure there are others (I know
years ago my old SGI Indy workstation with the CosmoCompress video
capture card let me grab movies from random sections of the screen, so
this is nothing new).
