If a business is failing THAT BADLY, they're not likely to have resources to implement the safeties. And if they don't, who's going to get in trouble?

It's not about businesses failing - content disappears from Netflix and other services all the time. Shows people were watching previous month regularly disappear even though people pay for service. And DRM prevents them from exercising the legal right (in most juristictions, even US) to make private copies and watch them later. Remember VCRs and DVR devices? We changed laws to explicitly allow that.
