It seems to be at moov.trak.mdia.minf.stbl.stsd.drms. Just checking
for the presence of the atom should be probably enough. I've tried it
on a file that I found somewhere and it seems to work.

This part seems fine, but I think that the information should go into
ASF::Properties, not ASF::Tag (especially not defining a new WM
attribute). Any chance you have a file I can test this against?
