That's the DRM's problem to solve. Paying customers shouldn't have their stuff stolen because someone else might be a non-paying customer.

Unfortunately, there’s nothing compelling vendors legally speaking that I’m aware of, but there damn well should be. I also think unavailability due to DRM downtime or issues should have ramifications, as well.
