It almost seams entirely to please management. The local TV stations use eme and yet youtube-dl still works fine on them.

Can you provide examples? Some local stations in Australia have switched on DRM and I can't save anything. Over the air is still unencrypted though.
Iview is the one I'm talking about. YouTube DL basically downloads the unencrypted video direct from the server but the website doesn't work until you enable drm
Ah, whereas Seven, Nine and Ten are all encrypting (some) streams.
