I can't understand why, if (and only if) you interpret this delivery
as "binary" and also deliver the free source code on a free medium, so
that everyone can create their own DRM medias as they like.

That delivering only on such a medium is not ok according to GPL, is
obvious. It's also obvious that such a medium is not nice.
