It's how the DMCA works though, if the media has any DRM on it.

No it's not. You can't just say "SOME PEOPLE ARE USING THIS FOR PIRACY SO NOBODY SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO USE THIS LEGALLY". That's _not_ how it works and there are many court cases on point here.

The legal uses as well as the plausible fair uses need to be evaluated before you can say "nope, this has gotta go".
