The existing DRM systems address the interests of providers, associated with prohibitively tight protection measures, which do not take customers’ behaviors and needs into account. This paper proposes a novel DRM scheme that both accommodates consumers’ expectations for the friendliness of personal use and preserves the providers’ revenue. By maintaining a fairer balance between the interests of both content providers and consumers, the proposed DRM scheme thus benefits the digital content industry as a whole. The comparison between the related works and the proposed scheme implies the superiority of the proposed scheme while the security analyses and the further discussion demonstrate the proposed works well.
