Digital Rights Managements hurts paying customers, destroys Fair Use rights, renders customers' investments worthless, and can always be defeated. Why are consumers and publishers being forced to use DRM?

Haven't you read the DRM Licenses that come with things today? My personal favorite one is along the lines of "This CD may not work in some older CD players or computer cd drives. We do not accept returns of this product due to DRM issues."
They might as well have just said "Now that you bought this CD, we would just like to say, we 0wnz j00."
Fair use is going the way of the dodo in the good old USA.
