I don't consider that an extreme.
Sure, I refuse to buy books I would enjoy because they're DRM-restricted. But I also refuse to buy books I would enjoy because my TBR list is too long already, or because they cost too much, or for any of a number of other reasons. Sometimes it comes down to rejecting a book because its cover is ugly. There are millions of books, and I have only one lifetime to read them in. Since I already have more books on hand than I'll be able to read in the foreseeable future (and thanks to my suggestion of setting up a book announcement forum, I keep buying more!) I'm losing nothing by voting with my tiny little wallet against something as consumer-hostile as DRM.
