Default Windows Media DRM

I downloaded a TV documentary from the Internet which I saved as a
..wmv file. When I tried to play it, it said it was DRM protected. It
seems stupid that if I had recorded the documentary when it was
broadcast, there would have been no problem but because I missed it
and downloaded it later, I am having all this hassle.

Any suggestions, folks?

Not really. If whoever made it available on the Internet chose to
protect it, it's protected.
