Just the point I wanted to make. And as I said: Whether the system succeeds in reducing software piracy depends on the system.

From a pure technical and non-emotional point of view I must admit that I see a very slim chance that if there was a complete genious abong the software developers that program DRM and he had an extrordinary good day, then he might actually produce something that reduces (not stops!) software piracy.

As you pointed out this did not happen so far. But hey, the guy wanted a positive aspect of DRM and the possible reduction of piracy is the only thing DRM could ever achieve.
