To remove the DRM, great majority of us will first need to find tools to do that. Not only is it illegal to remove DRM, it is illegal to write, distribute and in some places "discuss" tools for DRM removal - http://www.zeropaid.com/news/86758/f...ing-about-drm/

It's too bad we are even having this conversation. When we buy a book (eBook or otherwise), we should have the right to copy it to as many devices, lend/give it to friends and pretty much do whatever we want with it. I understand publishers' fears of piracy, but I also think the consumer has the right to do what they want with their own property.
