Someone needs to look up what DRM stands for...

Shhh, everyone knows controllers are digital.

I guess blu-ray discs are digital as well.

But DRM isn't for the Blu-ray disc itself. It's for the game on it, which is indeed digital.

BTW DRM means Digital Rights Management.

Obviously anything with software can have DRM on it, that was the point I was making. 

And yes I'm aware of what DRM stands for, thank you. People are just overreacting because the word has such a stigma. I used the term because it is the most easy to understand analog with regards to how they are ensuring that a DS4 is hooked up. Its not exactly the same, but outside of the fact that it doesn't require a network connection, its basically the same concept. Frequent check ins to ensure legitimacy.
