I disagree with all of you previous commentators. DRM in the browser already exists and it is called Flash. This is also the reason why Adobe is still supporting Flash and wants to bring it to other platforms other than the browser.
As for Netflix on Linux, they want to make money and will have to make it available if they want Linux customers. Remember that nothing is going to stop Netflix or anybody else from making their media incompatible with your setup, so the keys are already in their hands.
On the other hand demanding freedom and openness from organizations that only want to make money is useless. Just ask for your platform to be supported and pay them when they do. Otherwise no one is going to take a second look at you no matter how loud you shout.
