DSM-CC (Digital Storage Media - Command and Control) is a very recent ISO/IEC standard developed for the delivery of interactive multimedia broadband services. This paper develops two themes of DSM-CC and explores issues related to its applicability to World Wide use. The first theme is that of Sessions and Resource control: tracking and controlling all resource usage goes against the prevailing approach of the Internet but will, we advocate, be required if quality of service is to be guaranteed effectively. The second theme is effect on distributed computing models of downloadable Information Appliances and network resource control. In this model the acquisition of an object reference also becomes the acquisition of the network resources needed to use the object's operations. Finally we suggest areas of further work.
