If you look at it from the viewpoint of the hacker, it makes sense. The hacker has to work to hack the DRM. That takes significant time & knowledge. He is "paid" by his reputation as a hacker increasing and perhaps his knowledge increasing. Those who download the hacked version are "paying" his reputation. Admittedly it is a minor point and I agree that it doesn't fit a nicely as his other arguments.
