I fully believe the M1 is game-changing, but that sounds like you're comparing it to an atrocious alternative. I have an HP Spectre x360 from 2018. The fans don't spin up unless I'm running heavy computation, and on battery,

I'm not sure what you're seeing, but for me the page starts with a massive ToC. On even smaller screens it turns into a button fixed at the bottom of the screen that opens a ToC in an overlay.

Nothing you mention has anything to do with DRM. I wish I could just pay $15 to get high quality DRM-free files for a season of a TV show, but the only thing on offer is a streaming copy full of DRM (which I can't play at full quality)
