Similarly - what's to keep someone from using their digital out form their
home audio equipment to send the bits to their digital in on their computer?

Viola!  'Correct' digital bit stream that is now on the PC to do with as
they wish.

I haven't verified this but would presume the data stream to be 'pure' and
not protected in any way.  Can someone correct me?

The sad part about this entire topic is the futility of attempting to copy
protect in the first place. So they install some software and Mac and
Win... then some Linux kiddie rips the CD and puts it on P2P and it's out
now for the whole world. All it takes is one person to break it and it's
all over. What a waste of resources trying to protect it.
