DRM protected downloads is really not the best way to protect your content as it is likely to piss off your members big time and, most importantly, it will reduce file sharing by 50% max.
Streaming is another matter, that is far more effective, and your members will be far less pissed.
DRM could be used for streaming too - if you DRM protect your source files and let it play only if the MAC address matches to the one of your server. This kind of DRM protection is not going to cost you any of the member bitching, at least not any more than a streaming only model, because they woudn't even know there's some kind or DRM there, for them it'll work just like any other stream does (only those trying to rip your stream off will know, but you don't give a fuck about their opinion any way).
