It's not often we directly disagree, but I think this event is confusing 
intent with implementation.  The implementation _is_ appalling but 
saying "DRM Bad" as an absolute is, at best, misleading.  There's 
nothing wrong, in principle, with copyright holders dictating how their 
product is distributed and managed.   Let's have everyone present at 
this demonstration sign a public declaration that they've not downloaded 
copyrighted material  _before_  they start protesting their rights to 
use the stuff they've actually purchased.
