> there is an interesting question about how people get paid for their work.

DRM on movies has zero technical effects right now, and still many people manage to get paid, somehow. Maybe they should continue doing what they're doing, but stop forcing privilege escalation bugs onto other people's computers and phones?

It's time to let go of the tiger prevention rock. DRM won't save anyone from copyright infringement, the users' willingness to pay will. Users will pay for convenience or out of respect, and the movie industry is busy undermining both, in part with DRM nonsense.
