As someone who just got his daily 40min of "TV" interrupted by amazon error AMZP-9, right in the middle of an episode... i'm now regretting not having downloaded a torrent ilegaly. The whole thing with torrent is not about saving money. I already have access to the content for free for paying amz prime. it is all about convenience. I was lied to that instant streaming was more convenient. Well, that until AMZP-9 popups in the middle of an episode and there is not way to watch it for the day.
With torrent, at least i'd know beforehand when setting my 40min* aside, that i will press play and see the damn content. So yeah, it does not weaken the case against DRM. i will agree that it strengthen it. Any engineer worth its salt would CACHE the damn stream. They can't because of DRM and silly contracts out of touch with reality.
(* and that is not counting the 5min that it takes to GET to the content on amazon player... piece of @!#)
