3D Systems abandons its Cube printers, but DRM means you can't buy filament from anyone else

The list of companies who think it’s just peachy to block aftermarket components and uses for their equipment with obstructive software and DRM just grows by leaps and bounds.

That is shortsighted and IMO wrong, but perfectly understandable. What boggles me is why so many people let themselves be conned into buying the stuff when there are open/interoperable alternatives.
