Your licence fee most certainly did not pay for that production. Almost all programmes broadcast by the BBC are produced independently, and the rights are owned by the production companies. Your licence fee will have been used to pay for the right to broadcast the material, and possibly for some repeat broadcast rights, but NOT for the intellectual property rights. That's the reason for the DRM protection; it's demanded by the production companies, not foist upon you by the BBC.
