I'm not formally boycotting anything but I am trying to use "consumer smarts".

I WILL NOT pay more than the HB or PB price for an ebook.

Unless it's something I will want to read multiple times I'll still probably borrow the library book (if possible).

For space reasons I tend to only buy "physical" books from authors I like to collect or will reference repeatedly.

I also wouldn't mind the option to pay a bit more for a DRM free ebook (sort of like iTunes does sometimes with music) but that's probably a discussion for a different topic.
