The amount of effort is dependent on situation.

DRM should never lock a client out because their hardware changed.  Binding to 
a MAC address is also not reliable.  They can be spoofed and some systems 
change their MAC address on every startup.  A system that can adapt to hardware 
changes, not knock the client out, but let you know that this is taking place 
so you can make a decision on how to proceed is what we are using.
