Does Chromium contain the DRM needed to play sites like Netflix? I know many here are against DRM, but it’s necessary if I want to use my Netflix.

Netflix will play a 720p version if you don't have a DRM supported browser. Also netflix distributes native apps to all platforms, which means you don't need chrome to use netflix in full fidelity on any device except maybe linux?

Widevine is a DLL bundled with Chrome. You can copy it into a Chromium installation and use Netflix. I don't know if this violates TOS/licenses/law.
