DRM per se isn't evil. It's the very restrictive methods of implementation of current DRM that suck. I've used services that use social DRM. There's an unobtrusive watermark on the file but the file is viewable on any device that supports the file format (in my case - PDF). No activation or special software required.
Anything that requires an activation server, though, I wouldn't go near unless it's possible to remove the DRM.
