Readium LCP DRM
Thorium Reader supports the DRM Readium LCP, originally designed by the Readium Foundation. The specification of this DRM is public, and it is an ISO technical specification under the reference ISO 23078-2.
LCP has already been adopted by many public libraries, universities and booksellers around the world (A list of distributors supporting LCP is maintained here).
Publishing organizations around the world are encouraged to adopt LCP as a means of protecting digital books from over-sharing, while providing users with a frictionless experience and keeping content properly accessible. Please contact EDRLab if your organization is interested in adopting LCP.
