There's a good interview on Groklaw with the head of the BBC division
responsible for the DRM'd iPlayer software:

His responses are sometimes encouraging and sometimes discouraging but it
seems that the issue is open for debate and that if people care enough to
maintain public awareness of this issue, DRM-free BBC content is possible.

IIRC, the BBC agreed to this interview because of the amount of attention
raised by a previous interview with Mark Taylor:

(also by Sean Daly)

Maybe some of you here know more about the topic and could contribute to the
discussion here or on Groklaw.  I'm certainly interested.
