There is no doubt that it will be easy to bypass the DAT copy protect
circuitry.  That is not what the fuss is over.  The fuss is that to
make copyprotect work it has to be impressed on the source material,
ruining it for everyone.  I doubt that I'll ever own a DAT unit.  The
only reason I have a cassette deck is to make tapes for my car, but
since I don't have a cassette deck in the car, it is mostly unused.
I do own CD players and a substantial amount of CD's already, if the
music on CD's is further degraded.
