Too bad - because their is the only case which matters.
Because they create the product. The DRM something they use to protect said product. They decide to implement it or not. The questions "if it works or not" - which last time I looked is this thread about - is important for them and meaningless for the customer.
For those the question is "Is the DRM hindering me using the product?". That is something utterly independant to the efficieny of said DRM. A bad, easily removed DRM can be a real pain for an "honest" (aka someone who does not remove it) customer, a very efficient DRM can be unnoticable to the buyer.

Insisting that you have the right to pick and choose what will be discussed

And I did that where please? Honestly, please quote me there.
Because I didn't. I said that your comparsions are invalid because what they compare have nothing to do with DRM (and simply condradict each other or are comparing different situations). If you can THAT
"Insisting that you have the right to pick and choose what will be discussed" then you did the very same thing by saying that
"You're being very selective." to what I wrote.
Hell, you even do it in the very same post you accuse me of it -
"we don't need to hear it". Hypocrisy much?
