Oh, trust me, I'm not. Nonetheless, I think most people are assuming that since today's DRM doesn't work, it naturally follows that nothing will ever come along that will work. I personally believe that thinking is short-sighted, akin to assuming that aircraft would never carry more than 2 people, or that cars would never be more than rich men's toys. Or that a computer would never be much smaller than a house.
Those examples turned out to be wrong, but they weren't disproven overnight. I expect "DRM will never work" to be disproven, but not overnight. I think it's 50-50 whether or not they achieve it before I die... and at 50, I plan to continue to take breaths, and live a while longer.
And until they figure out workable DRM, I'm perfectly content to do without.
