Yes, the only thing that can work is the *legal measures*. This has nothing to do with DRM, or technology. Any DRM scheme, in a market without braindead laws like the DMCA, would immediately lead to multiple vendors selling hardware not respecting the scheme.

The thing that is protecting the 'content providers' is the laws, not the technology. DRM from a security standpoint is a joke. If you can play it you can copy it.
