The success of DRM-devices makes it more difficult to find DRM'd movies,
songs, books, etc... So it's not always an option, sadly.
At least on the music side of the business, it seems that DRM is mostly
dead for now, but for all the rest, DRM is king.

While I mostly agree, there can be other significant factors that memory
size. E.g. battery autonomy, weight, size, younameit. There are
competing products for some of the featureset, but I don't think there's
always "a better option out there".
