Agreed.. but to add to what you said. The "real" reason you don't see programs/paysites flipping over to DRM is the cost. The truth is, other than the known major programs, 99% can't afford DRM at even the most basic level.
They act like they can, they through parties, sponsor events... But a $15k server or $4k lease plus per stream feeds is much more than most programs can afford to pay.
Including myself, no way I'm spending that much money to protect something I know brands my sites, brings in more traffic, and exposure to thousands who would have never found/visited me because they don't surf within the tgp-adult-traffic bubble.
