Most people don't realise you can plug almost any HLS URL into ffmpeg and trivially rip the stream. Most live streams don't bother with DRM because it's expensive, fragile, and user-hostile. It's often difficult enough to get the motion picture to display properly at all, let alone with acceptable resolution, latency, and artefact-free. The smart companies prioritise UX over policing the "high tier" features.
