Not completely true:

It's not as invasive or as automatic, but there is DRM software on
Sony CDs for Macs as well.

Uh, saying that "it's not as invasive or automatic" is the understatement of the year.

From the comments to the thread you linked to:

"It does NOT install anything on your Mac unless you dig deep into a seperate partition of the disc, run a hidden program, and enter an admin password."

This is not to excuse Sony's implementation of this, of course, but Mac users aren't at risk from it unless they go to quite a lot of trouble to put themselves at risk.
