the market allows the DRM because people keep buying the content even when DRM is included, standardizing it may just mean less clunky implementations of DRM
but if we were to ban DRM from the market would something else crop up to replace it? would content creators stop making content?
what about IP laws? if we got rid of them, there would probably be more content AND more DRM? or would it be more content and less DRM since it would only be a matter of time before someone legally reproduces your work so why bother with DRM?
