Description of the issue:
Drm Videos are not playing! I tryied in Edge browser too and works fine!
How can this issue be reproduced?
Trying to reproduce videos of DRM Player like Spotify, Onlyfans, etc
Expected result:
Reproduce DRM videos with no Problem
Brave Version( check About Brave
):
Version 1.52.130
Mobile Device details
Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro
Android 11
Additional Information:
Unfortunately, spotify hasnât been able to be played on android. Does work on windows. Iâll tag @fanboynz to provide more info
Brave doesnât have support for Widevine on Android, so no, it is impossible to play DRM stuff in Brave, obviously Edge doesnât have that problem.
They are currently implementing it, so it will be available in Nightly in some weeks, and who knows about Stable, probably 2 months after it is merged to Nightly.

## Test Plan:
1. Go to https://open.spotify.com, login with an account.
2. Make sure the page loads normally after login, instead of a warning about incompatible browser.
3. Play any of the songs in the top songs list.
4. Make sure the length of the song playing is >30s, and the song plays normally.
5. (optional) Do the same Widevine QA as desktop with YouTube, HBO Max, etc. with "Desktop site" checked.
6. QA please also do regression tests on the following:
- Test site permission prompts with Lifetime options (e.g. mic permission) on both Desktop (any one of Win, MacOS and Linux is enough) and Android
- Test Widevine permission requests on ALL desktop platforms (Win, MacOS and Linux)
