Given their efforts to keep coming up with newer/better/stronger DRM methods, I'd say they're looking for a solution that prevents piracy, not just a deterrent for otherwise honest consumers. If they were only interested in the latter, they wouldn't need to keep revising the DRM.

Personally, I think that DRM has never really been about piracy. I still think it's a goal of theirs to prevent piracy, and the excuse they use to get the public to accept it, but that's not the main reason they use it.
