Microsoft to Beef Up Its Investment in DRM for Mobile

John Blau writes on InfoWorld:

With ever more songs, pictures, and video clips being sent over the airwaves to mobile phones, Microsoft plans to beef up its investment in DRM (digital rights management) technologies to help protect copyright material, the company said Wednesday on the opening day of CTIA Wireless 2006 in Las Vegas.

Microsoft provided no financial details, saying only that the investments would be "significant." It plans to extend its Windows Media Digital Rights Management software to support new types of wireless services, it said.
