Does Family Sharing Need DRM?

What you are saying is DRM basically. Requiring the system to be online to use the family shared content is actually worse than what MS was proposing.

Not really, it's a digital download copy so you need internet in the first place to even download it. So there is no reason why an internet connection is seen as a restrictive requirement. It's a choice for the consumer to enable family sharing or not and then verify who the family members are and when/what they can play. 

Oh then it would be like on the PS3 except worse. PS3 has it that anyone on the system can play a game if it has the account registrated for it. People lent out their accounts between friends so that a friend could download a game and play without paying. If they didn't sign in, they could play forever as the system couldn't tell if the account had been unregistered. Even when ignoring that last statement, it was a huge problem until sony limited to 2 consoles.
