Competitors already exist in this area. Here is GoG's listening of DRM-free movies:

It is very rare that I find something I want to watch here, where as the content I generally want to watch, sadly, exists behind a DRM-wall.
Services/competitors are a dime a dozen, but the issue is driving users to your service, and I don't believe users will run to watch content they don't want to watch just because it is DRM free. I also don't feel like we will force content creators to go DRM free since, as we're seeing, everyone is releasing their own streaming service, which would include DRM.
