Except for one thing.. it's not the artist making that decision, nor benefiting from it. Trent Reznor for example was furious that his album With Teeth (I think) had some nasty DRM on it.

Artists make money from tours and merch, not from record sales.

That bill isn't so much helping artists as it is helping the record giants. I bet if you polled most artists, they'd tell you they'd prefer no DRM.
