And the problem it addresses isn't DRM, but copyright length. And we're losing....
Ah, thanks p (it is alright to call you p isn't it?) I should have thought to check that.

Isn't DRM a direct outgrowth of copyright? E.G. a means to enforce copyright and therefore restricting or reversing copyright growth necessarily means restricting or reversing DRM utilization?
