Most DRM is there to protect it during the initial sales window when demand and awareness of the product are at their highest.

So why not release a DRM-free version after that window? I'd be happy to wait 6 months to buy a movie if that's what it took to get a DRM-free copy.
Citation needed. It seems very clear from the history of copyright law that the whole thing is just a money grab.
I'm not talking about copyright law, I'm talking about DRM. Go look at the videogame industry and denuvo. They use it because it's hard to crack during the initial sales window, once it gets cracked usually after a couple months they patch it out and don't bother to replace it because its job is done.
