I'm not sure there is much point in reciting my opinion on why new DRM does in fact help lock down customers since the same point flew by unnoticed the past couple of times, but just for the sake of other readers, I assure everyone the above is not
my point. My point is that Steven and others are correct that new DRM schemes do help, but for reasons other than the ones they state.
I've argued with people over whose point was better before, but I've never spent quite this much space trying to explain that I did indeed have a point of my own. I'm willing to concede this as a failing of my own communication skills, but looking back, I don't really see a way to clarify.
I'm happy to leave this at us disagreeing, I just want to be clear that we do disagree.
