On December 11, Warner will release the latest DVD of the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
The interesting thing about this is that unlike traditional DVD media which usually just include typical behind-the-scenes and bonus material, this one will have multiple media formats saved on a single disk that will allow users to easily play it on other devices such as your home PC and portable media players.
However, there is no mention whether DRM will be used as copyright protection. If Warner does decide to go the DRM route, then you might want to rule out iPod use since DRM-protected media is only compatible with Windows Media Player. But let’s wait till they release official word on this. I would also like to believe that this will apply to international releases, but no confirmation on this particular matter either.
