Chrome is not, and isn't meant to be, DRM. There are DRM extensions for that, but Chrome (and let's extend this statement to any other whitelisted browser) does not try to limit what you can do to a website. The only restriction I can think of is the common ports thing, but if you want to connect to port 25 (typically for SMTP/email), go ahead and change the about:config setting and you can do it.
