Reminds me of a comic my wife showed me today:
http://bradcolbow.com/archive/view/the_brads_why_drm_doesnt_work/?p=205

The content publishers are facing a fundamental issue here: the
infrastructure to support their Digital Restrictions Management is far
more complex than the product it is restricting, meaning that the user
experience (even on supported platforms) is bad.

I like the way Cisco Press is doing their eBooks (not quite the same
thing as TV catch-ups, i know): when i buy an ebook, i get a DRM-free
PDF or ePUB file with my name in it as a watermark.  And the books are
pretty cheap, too.  Gives me lots of incentive to buy from them over
their competitors, and i know that the files are going to work with
whatever device i care to put them on.
