I do not support this new DRM as I have said elsewhere, but let's make sure we're getting our facts correct here.

Lets. EULAs are legally not worth the paper they're printed on / bytes they take up, despite what the software industry would have you believe. Anything can be written in a EULA but that doesn't mean that a court will uphold it, especially when, as has been alluded to, the EULA may not actually be written in accordance to actual law.
The most obvious and common problem would be that for physical purchases the buyer cannot view the EULA until after the purchase has already been made and/or the software executed.
