Complain to BBC?

From what I've read the BBC are kinda being forced to use DRM as a requirement of the media companies who supply the BBC with some of the content (I'm sure I read somewhere that the majority of stuff broadcast on the BBC these days is from other suppliers which they don't hold the rights for).
