They are also driven by money, and ficbot is right; given the choice between spending $15 and then breaking the law, or spending $0 and then breaking the law, many will choose the cheaper route.
Though it would also depend on the penalty for breaking the DRM removal law vs. the penalty of breaking an anti-piracy law.
