DRM pushes people towards legit outlets, often because the pirate version is of lower quality, bound with malware, or arrives later than the legit version does. Stop seeing DRM as an unbreakable lock and start seeing it as a cost optimisation problem and you'll understand.q

DRM pushes people against legit outlets, often because legit version is of lower quality (e.g. HDCP), bound with malware (e.g. Sony rootkit), or arrives later or even never, because market too low to care about (e.g. Linux/BSD, or local markets of non-English speaking countries), that the pirated version does.
