Trivial CL: https://codereview.chromium.org/2791433002

We talked about this when we add that UI on desktop chrome and at that time we thought "content" isn't obvious to a lot of users and "protected media" might be a better choice. 

But I searched again and it seems "protected content" is actually used more often than "protected media" [1]. Note that "Premium content" is actually used more often, but it's mostly in the context of gaming [2].

Adobe Flash also uses "Protected Content" [3].

With that, I feel "protected content" is the right choice. But I'd like to hear the opinions from PM and UX.

We may want to replace all occurrences of "premium content" by "protected content" in chromium source code: https://cs.chromium.org/search/?q=%22premium+content%22+package:%5Echromium$&type=cs

Re #4: I think the change makes sense. But we need UX approval.

ericde / mlamouri: How do we get UX involved here?

+Hotlist-Media-UX is going to put this in our bugs requiring UX attention. Though, I'm afraid this might be hard for our Media UX person to talk as there is a lot of background they do not have. xhwang@, do you know who was involved in the previous discussions on the UX side?

s/to talk/to look at/ (not sure how I ended up writing this)

+ Shimi, who might be able to advise on the process for fixing confusing translations?

I do not recommend that we replace all occurrences of "premium content" with "protected content."

In IDS_PROTECTED_MEDIA_IDENTIFIER_INFOBAR_QUESTION, "<SITE> wants to uniquely identify your device to play premium content.", I agree that this should be changed to "protected" to be technically correct. The fix has already been made in French, but we should fix the EN source. 

In IDS_DEL_MEDIA_LICENSES_COUNTER_GENERAL_COMMENT and IDS_DEL_MEDIA_LICENSES_COUNTER_SITE_COMMENT, "You may lose access to premium content" string in the Clear Browsing Data dialog, this string is intended to warn users of the implication of deleting media licenses. I didn't write this string, but I believe the use of "premium" here was deliberate and is valid.

xhwang@, I'm fine with continuing to use "content" instead of "media," but should we then change "Media licenses" in CBD to "Content licenses" to maintain consistency with the content setting language? Or just leave it as is?

I also found one instance of "protected media" that should be changed to "protected content": 

IDS_PLATFORM_VERIFICATION_DIALOG_HEADLINE, "DOMAIN wants your device's identity to be verified, by Google, to determine eligibility for enhanced playback of protected media." 

These strings & recommendations are documented for easier reference:

srahim: Thanks for the thorough investigation!

I agree with most of your suggestions, except the "Media Licenses" one which I am not sure. I definitely saw cases of using "content licenses" in this context, but also there are users who has no idea about what "content licenses" are, especially since we also have "content settings". So that might cause a bit confusion.

That being said, I don't have strong opinion on this.

Thanks, xhwang! Since this bug is about "protected" v. "premium", let's see if there is additional feedback on those strings first.

We can decide the "media license" v. "content license" question separately. 



 

Thanks! 

With that, I'll approve https://codereview.chromium.org/2791433002. I'll add srahim@ to that CL as well.

Use "protected" instead of "premium" for media content.

So that the UI strings are consistent across Chrome.
