Encrypted WMV

Okay I found this:

http://epl.lib.overdrive.com/70D36C9...E-273E62B003A6


It appers to be DRMed.

I want to play the video in Linux, but they dont make software for Linux.

When I went there there was a download to a .odm file

I got the URL
http://wmv.contentreserve.com/WMVSto...t35-Part01.wmv

So I downloaded the file but Totem media player says the file is encrypted and cannot be played. VLC shows scrambled things.

Is there a way to decrypt the file? There has to be a way to play it (afterall that is the point of having a video file). Does the ODM file have a key needed to play it? If so, how do I make it play?

This is why DRM sucks!
