"Pretty much the entire industry has simply decided that DRM is the only way to make money -- even with repeated examples of why that's simply not true,"
Can someone educate me on some of these "examples?"

The most successful download business model (besides piracy) is iTunes, which has the most stringent DRM on the block.
I wouldn't call piracy a business model.

Probably the reason why the music and movie industries are heavy on their tail. You profit from copyrighted works without paying royalties and that's true copyright infringement.
