    locked ones don’t provide DRM guarantees either. it takes a script kiddie five minutes to break DRM whenever some new scheme comes out.

      It’s probably contractual obligations from shitty media companies.

        quite probably. Ironically it does nothing helpful because pirates are gonna pirate.

          If anything, it’s does the opposite by driving would-be legitimate buyers (well… Subscribers) into piracy.

          You won’t provide it to me even if I pay you, because you don’t like the system I use? Fine, I’ll keep my money and pirate it instead.

                If the monopoly is the bad guys… the pirates are the good guys, right?
