Indeed, the broad (and depending the media, near universal) disregard for the integrity of DRM should be fairly blatant indication that DRM is only an option if it is trivially breakable (i.e.: it doesn't work).
Many people, I among them, will not lease content. If I cannot buy it, I will certainly not pay money to lease it. I'm willing to let a company pretend they are leasing it to me--but if they actually acquire the technological means to enforce the limitations of such pretenses about the arrangement, I'll spend my money elsewhere.
