I am taking a "wait and see" stance, but I think the suppliers see it as a way to make more money on a low profit margin product. They all drool over Apple's app store and want an Android equivalent.

Google is full of smart folks who also understand these things. Barring a full bore Trusted implementation, that would enrage the open source community that would otherwise be expected to be early adopters and evangelists, any DRM would be broke in the first few months.
