THE ANSWER YOU GAVE DOES NOT ANSWER MY QUESTION.

Many authors and publishers are making a good living without DRM now. Why would we expect that to change if more publishers & authors give up DRM, except that there'll be more competition for the DRM-averse customers?
Do you have any data, rather than random speculation, that indicates that removing all DRM will cause *less* authors to be able to make a living? Because we have plenty of data that says that DRM doesn't increase incomes.
