MPEG LA Releases DRM Reference Model 2.0

There is no doubt a lot going on behind the scenes here as the MPEG Licensing Authority (MPEG LA) releases Version 2.0 of its DRM Reference Model "to create a pool of licensable patents on DRM-related technology, so that would-be DRM implementors can license relevant intellectual property.... to cover DRM implementations that conform to the Open Mobile Alliance's OMA DRM 1.0 specification" What this article - oddly - doesn't mention is that the OMA has based its work on the open source alternative, ODRL. I am also curious about how this will impact the deliberations of the IEEE-LTSC Digital Rights Expression Language subcommittee, which has been conducting its deliberations all year on the basis of the earlier version of the MPEG REL.
