Default Re: DRM for Quicktime files?

This sounds confusing as hell to me.

It says there with using Live Stage Pro (and I'll break this up into two paragraphs):

Quote:
This particular script relies on the Movie Annotation field for the Host Computer. This makes it easy for anyone with QuickTime Pro to change the host URL that the DRM track is comparing against. While that might seem counter to our wanting to protect the movie, it does make this a usable widget that can be added to any QuickTime movie to protect it.

Once you’ve set the Host Computer annotation, just select the copy protect checkbox when you save the movie. Or if the movie is embedded in a web page, just set the parameter kioskmode to true. Either of these will prevent changes to the annotations from being saved thereafter.
Now either the second paragraph is countermanding the first one and it does protect it. Or the first paragraph is correct and even the things done in the second paragraph will not protect it.

Any idea which is which? Cause it seems to contradict itself -- just can't tell which way it's contradicting!
