My favorite part about all this DRM-lockdown that the movie industry loves so much is that gog.com makes tons of money and is successful with zero DRM. People buy games when it's convenient, they don't in general share them with 10 friends. Some people pirate, but if I don't have to deal with DRM from a first-party store, I'm not going to bother with piracy. Meanwhile, the movie industry spends millions on innovative new DRMs that make things worse. I have tried to keep up with 4K Blue Rays, but it's exhausting. Every 4k player sucks, freezes mid-movie, or refuses to play movies I paid full price for. DRM totally kills my incentive to pay studios for products.
