The best part is DRM really doesn't lead to any sales of video content, because everything there's even a shred of demand for is still ripped right away anyways.

Because it's a video. Even if you could keep the encoded version from being ripped (which you pretty clearly can't do), at the end of the day it's raw pixels and audio.
