Plenty of very smart people push DRM too.

Any examples? I've never heard an intelligent pro-DRM argument and I'd be genuinely interested.

I didn't see your response until this had fallen off my "comments" list, and since I'm sure very few people will read this comment now, I'm going to forego the detailed response.

You can catch me via email (check my profile) and I'll take a SWAG at an answer; if you find the answer remotely compelling, I'll turn it into a blog post and thank you for the prod.
