Not having DRM is a plus value. People with money don't actually bother to pirate.

I believe the comment I replied to changed what it said. I recall something about making it a law that DRM should be removed after a reasonable time period of 1 to 2 years.

I agree that DRM sucks. I didn't agree that it should be law to remove DRM a year or two after release.
