I heard of it in the past but apparently never encountered any DRM files as of now until I read something it in OnionBooty.com

What does DRM exactly does?

Let's say you download some videos from onion booty which all movies are DRM protected. Once download you play it and so but then ( I have two hard drive in my computer) you copy and paste the file from A to B, would the DRM file play on computer B?

In its most common form, DRM attempts to prevent unauthorized duplication by limiting how many devices can use the file in question and maybe how many hard copies you can make.

You'll have to read the details at each content provider's website or ask them for their terms of service, but usually these companies require you to read the legalese before you download.

For a more detailed primer, please refer to the Wikipedia article on the subject.

If you want to witness DRM-protected content firsthand, download a copy of iTunes and grab the weekly free song from the iTunes Music Store.

The newer videos at OnionBooty and some other sites are DRM license protected, the licenses have to be activated while online and may only last a certain amount of views or even days and may even require being online for each viewing. I am not aware of OnionBootys exact rules for their DRM content. You can probably burn them and move them from PC to PC or from drive to drive but you will need to have a valid license on each.

good idea but drm is already cracked so you can remove the protection. M$ has the right idea but people don't like the restrictions.

If in Windows Media Player (with the video open) you click File, then Properties, under the licence tab it should tell you what you can and cannot do.
