Pauline said it well, but I would like to add a few more examples. Amazon is the only company to carry some books I wanted when I had a Kobo. The only way to read them was to remove the DRM.
Another example is Apple's icloud. If you bought music from Apple when DRM was imbedded, then that music will not work within icloud. This was a selling point to the music companies as a way to recoup loses from pirated music. Yes, pirated music works on icloud.
It is another point where an honest customer gets screwed.
