If every book, video, and painting is ripped off and shared for free why would any sane person pay? Of course the feds are going to act to defend the big budget spectacles which distract us from the corrupt clown show that is our world.

I already spent over a $1000 there although I technically could easily pirate almost any of their games. At the same time I don't buy anything from Steam because I hate DRM. And the only place where I often buy digital books is HumbleBudndle - also because DRM-free. If something is both cheap (or not so cheap but still possible to afford and visibly great value) and DRM-free I see no incentive to pirate it for anyone who is not extremely poor (so they wouldn't buy even if there was no option to pirate).
