Super restrictive DRM (especially one with "your membership expired so did your saved videos") is something that can only lead to customer frustration. While I understand the desire of copyright holders to jealously protect their work of unauthorized use, I can also understand the member's point of view.
Programs also don't have much of a leg to stand on when many of them are the ones flooding the P2P market and the newsgroups with looking for traffic and exposure. You feed the trolls, why do you think they are coming back to bite you on the ass?
Quite simply, you can't have it both ways... you can't teach the public about free content and download with membership, and then pull the rug out from under the feet 2 minutes later.
