I have the latest versions of Windows Media Player 9 and Safari.
I also get that error message from time to time.
From what I understand, Windows media has some kind
of proprietary licensing system that grants the WM
Player permission to only play certain licensed
files. Unfortunately, Windows Media Player 9 for Mac
OS X only supports version 1 licenses. This means
that, as mac users, we are only allowed to play some
protected files, but not others.
Check the WMP site FAQ page for further info.

What I usually do in situations like this is
Control-Click and choose "View Source" to look at the
source code, copy the file path of the file I'm
looking to play-
The file you're tying to play is-
http://origin.www.cbc.ca/mrl2/livemedia/cbcr1-victoria
.asx
and paste it into the VLC Player:

VLC is open source, plays just about anything and is
free to boot.
Hope that helps.
