The only thing I would add.... if if they all band together and do the "Price fix". Then go to the darknets and punish them all.

Or go to the DoJ and get them sued. There is no crime that the FTC enjoys exposing more than a price fix scheme.
Also, I generally agree on the rewarding companies that price how you like, the only flaw here is the DRM part. In theory if you buy DRM files but remove the DRM, the seller thinks you were okay with the DRM. So they don't see how many people really hate DRM.
