So it's up to "hackers" and pirates. I'm almost to the point where
I'll just buy the games with the stupid DRM, put it on the shelf, and
play a pirated copy that works.

You might as well - what's the advantage of installing the DRM version

Morally and legally, I'd say you're perfectly entitled to do this. I
know I have in the past, although less for DRM related issues, more
due to the fact that the game came out in the UK a bit later than in
the US :)

Multiplayer is the only downside of this approach. :(
