But if it does not successfully "protect" the contents, does it actually qualify as "protection"? By my twisted late-night reading of that license, you're only prohibited from breaking the DRM if you're unable to do it. Which I'm pretty sure isn't what they were trying to say.

No "protection" is needed from honest people, and DRM does not prevent copying and distribution by dishonest people. The publishers know this. It's about platform lock-in.
