I'm not so sure about that. Now there's talk about Bitcoins being used for DRM protection schemes: http://www.tribbleagency.com/?p=8332

Some are floating ?Bitcoin DRM? for a large video game maker. Where (if you believe the rumors) each video game is shipped with (for example) 5 bitcoins, each install sends out a single bitcoin, since double spending is impossible, the most that CD can be installed is 5 times before it cannot send out a bitcoin to activate it.
