We'll see. If DRM will be stopped by some other means - GPLv3 will be just "something FSF is using". If DRM will become the real problem - we'll see fast switch to the GPLv3 and the world will be split in two: old GPLv2 world (locked away with keys) and new GPLv3 world (free as designed). Not a good scenario, but better then alternatives.
