Can linux natively run software that uses drm yet?

I found out today that one of my favourite tv station is doing a catchup service, and yet again its windows only club. I thought I might write to them asking why they don't cater for other non-windowsxp users, but would like to get my facts straight first. So the question is, is it viable for a business to offer a service that protects media content via drm to linux users?

A business is viable when there is a enough customer demand. Mail them to let them know you are a customer and are being denied of a service.

Regarding DRM and Linux, DRM by nature means there is something closed. General business are not knowledgeable enough to know how to do so in Linux.
