The answer to DRM inconvenience can be evolution of mobile based apps unfortunately they are least secure today. Even if some less known vendor has strong drm but his competitor maybe be eager to spend time for breaking the drm thereby breaking its business.

Funny, it is the dedicated devices and PC software (in that order) which have been exploited. I suspect you have it backward...
And no, the danger is not competitors undermining their apps, I do not know which dream world you live in. It is Joe Reader, and Alf(red) Booklover.

I dont know whether its good to say "drm is a total waste" because then law would be also a total waste because some people break the law. and there is always cases of crime.

Law would be a total waste if it accomplished nothing, yes.
DRM is a total waste because it accomplishes nothing.
Notice the difference?
