The majority of software is obtained through a repository, yes? That's what people would use because they'd be afraid of getting viruses from an outside source.
Now, try writing an open source GPL'd program that uses DRM, or even a proprietary program that uses DRM, and try getting it included in an official repository in a mainstream distro.
