I'm a bit more optimistic. It's true that there are some segments (mostly Hollywood, which continues to distance itself from reality) which are insisting on stronger and stronger DRM. For example, new Hollywood 4K DRM requirements include hardware decoding and decryption, mandatory internet access for playback, and HDCP 2.2 which sets limits on cable length, TV size, and projector brightness.

On the other hand, there has been a huge growth in non-DRM markets. Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Youtube (and Apple of course) for music, GoG and Humble Bundle for games. I would even count Steam in this as many games ship without DRM. You can use Kindle Cloud Reader without binary plugins.

So stop giving those services your money and patronage. As long as people keep paying them, the market will continue to provide what they see people are willing to pay for.

Effecting change is rarely easy, and often requires sacrifice, but fortunately one of the benefits of the internet is that we have access to a lot more options.

Also, remember that the longer a power is entrenched as the status quo, the harder it is to change it. I strongly encourage making any necessary sacrifices to help fight DRM, walled gardens, and the like now, because waiting will only make the problem worse. Right now it might only require avoiding stuff like Netflix, which is a luxury. It will be a lot harder once the MPAA/etc decide there are too many workarounds for Netflix and start pressuring OEMs to start using the new Intel SGX to setup the "trusted execution environment" they've always wanted.
