Android 4.3
Google has announced
the existence of Android 4.3. It includes a host
of new features, some of which may be more welcome than others.
"To meet the needs of the next generation of media services, Android
4.3 introduces a modular DRM framework that enables media application
developers to more easily integrate DRM into their own streaming protocols,
such as MPEG DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP, ISO/IEC
23009-1)." There is no word on general availability or when this
code will be available through the Android Open Source Project.
