I think that sums the situation up beautifully. And it goes to show that "Less DRM = More sales".

Look at audio CDs, for instance. I like to listen to music on the go, like on my way to and from work, but I hardly ever listen to music at home. Therefore, I don't buy CDs with heavy copy protection systems on them. If I can't pop the CD in my computer and rip it to mp3 without a hassle, I'm not buying it, simple as that.
