Every Lion beta has cause the DRM error for me and now the GM is here. Honestly didn't think it would fix it but kinda hoped it did. Is it just me.

Some aren't getting this error and I think it has to do specifically with those using Netflix in Canada.

EDIT: Found the solution. If Netflix isn't working for you, try using the Silverlight 5 developer beta for mac.

Silverlight 5 performance improvements

Reduced network latency by using a background thread for networking.
XAML parser improvements that speed up startup and runtime performance.
Support for 64-bit operating systems.

I downloaded the GM yesterday. Didn't try Netflix until I saw your post. Mine didn't work either, but the Silverlight 5 beta does the trick.

Thanks for posting the solution.
