Could work for media as well:

DRM? Then you have to provide clients, including bugfixes and security upgrades for all paying customers on all platforms.

No DRM: Oh, you just sold a file? The customer can then run it in whatever SW they want.

So a person who wants to release a game on steam now has to provide support for windows Mac and Linux, and provide support for whatever flavours they’re running?

You can release DRM-free software on Steam.
