The whole "perfect" DRM thing was just to point out that having bits of your culture owned by corporations with the motive, intent and buying power to extent copyright laws to ensure they retain control forever is probably not a good thing.
As an aside and speaking as an engineer, I'm still a little confused on how for a given amount of digital information, 90-something% of possible arrangements of 1s and 0s are worthless noise and somehow a few % of those combinations are "magic" and worth money. Yes, I am simple that way - it must be that autistic engineering gene.
