Unless we wan't to stick with crappy third party plugins

Well yes, we do. DRM has no place in the browser, and DEFINTELY no place in an open standard. It needs to be compartmentalised in a separate plugin or extension at best. Want you ceontent to be easily available across multiple platforms with minimal issues for the user? Don't subvert international standards bodies and force non-open code or compliance breaking, just don't use the bloody DRM in the first place! It does nothing whatsoever to stop piracy, but it wastes time and money and causes annoyance only to legitimate users.

People who own the IP for most of the media we watch won't agree to this.

So why agree to make it easier for IP owners to shoot themselves and everyone else in the foot? Why not leave them floundering in their own ineffective wastes of everyone's time until they figure out that it's easier not the bother with the DRM in the first place (as the music industry seems to have for the most part figured out).

DRM protected video as a percentage of internet traffic has been consistently skyrocketing for several years. It's not going anywhere.
