IF SM goes bye-bye you've got a 6 month window at most till your program is bricked in my understanding so it would seem the risk to you is much higher in this form of DRM implementation.

Six months is a helluva big window in which to learn a new app, to port your assets over, etc., not to mention that Poser continues to run during those six months, so your workflow isn't disrupted immediately. Not hearing anything like that from DAZ other than vague assurances (which they have absolutely NO WAY of knowing that they'll be able to fulfill should the unthinkable occur) that they'll automatically unlock all encrypted content should the need arise.
