DRM on music is dead. The only hold out is iTunes, who the music industry is holding back from DRM-free music. As soon as Amazon or other services start to really compete with iTunes, the music industry will let iTunes drop its DRM. What we should focusing on is DRM on movies. Eventually, we will reach a point where the consumers and the movie industry have reached a balance and we'll an get will get what we want, but until then, piracy will continue.
