Or, perhaps we could re-phrase their double-speak:
"We don't like Apple's attitude. Therefore, we're going to hose their customers... not by saying that Apple is wrong, but by saying that the Mac platform is poorly supported by the software industry! Heh, that'll learn them".
Actually, I'd say they have a good reason for not supporting the Mac: it's less than 10% of the market...
What's important here is that they said "we won't write software for the Mac because of it's lack of DRM" instead of "we won't write software for the Mac because we don't think the market is big enough (yet) to recoup our costs."
Devious, but pretty smart on the studio's behalf: they get to punish Apple for it's lack of DRM AND save money by not writing a Mac client.
