8. Electronic Rights Management


Telecom Corporation of New Zealand Limited

8.1 Telecom supports the Ministry's proposed policy response on Electronic Rights Management. Telecom is concerned however that the legal protection of ERM not place undue burdens on content distributors and resellers. For example, if ERM is implemented for a WAP mobile phone service, the display requirements of the ERM might seriously degrade the usability of the service. Exceptions should therefore be considered to allow alteration of the ERM provided it is in substance adhered to and brought to the notice of the end-user of the content.
