I'm sorry...  I simply want no part in DRM.  It's blatantly unnecessary.

 - The law has provisions for 'protecting' content providers, making
DRM redundant.
 - Law changes, making DRM potentially too forgiving (ha!) or too draconian.
 - Most countries laws have provisions that detail rights of so-called
'content users', DRM flagrantly ignores those provisions.
