It only punishes users if it is badly implemented. I doubt many users of Steam or Netflix feel punished.

I can't watch my Netflix account on Linux without using some Wine distribution because of the Silverlight DRM. I'd say I feel pretty punished on that end.

I disagree. Even though Linux desktop usage isn't a huge percentage (~1%?), I would consider 1% of millions "many".
