That might be possible

That is also not correct
Quote:

Correct.

It is forbidden by law to manipulate the licensed file so that it can be read on devices that do not belong to the account - DRM removal.

And this manipulation enables the theft, which takes place when this modified file is also used on a device belonging to another account.

Then another license would have had to be bought.
