For whom? Do you really believe that DRM is *increasing* sales?

Do you have any evidence that books sell better with DRM than without it? -- Would Stephen King drop off the bestseller lists faster if his books were offered without DRM?

The ideal DRM would protect products, without hindering legitimate users. Unfortunately, there is no foreseeable option for this.
So, you've imagined a fantasy product that would be A Good Thing, and are claiming that, because you have imagined that, the current non-fantasy versions with flaws must also be good things?
