Will DRM become the norm?

Hi All,

Do you guys think incorporating DRM into *all* downloadable WMV files at pay sites become the norm?

My opinion:

It's good because:

-anonymous p2p spreading of files is made more difficult

It's not good because:

-downloaded files can "expire" when you cancel your membership

Certainly, there are other video formats which don't have DRM mechanisms to be built in...but wmv seems to be the most popular.
