You said it, and if the file format and decryption procedure gets universal/ standardized then it makes life easy for hackers to build a crack. So what do you think there is no possibility of workable drm, can't we have a working system in future similar to successful ecommerce. Other option could be to implement stringent laws on internet but that would be hard because its going to be crossborder issue. What i am saying is drm has to be there as long as problem exist.
