Without even reading the fine article, I can say "Duh!". DRM always
gets broken. Always. The question is, does it take minutes or weeks?
The answer usually depends not on the sophistication of the DRM so
much as the desirability of defeating it. DRM creation is a money
pit... corporations throw fistfulls of dollars in, and get nothing in
return (other than some unhappy end users).
