My advice is, if you have a book you bought and you can't remove the drm (almost never happens as like 99% of drms are easily removable), just find the book without drm elsewhere and download it without drm as if you would be doing so illegally. As I said, it's basically the same thing.

OK you bought the book -> you removed the drm -> you have book without drm

or

OK you bought the book -> you failed to remove DRM -> you download book without drm -> you have the book without drm

SAME START SAME END? what's the difference here?

I could see people getting worried about:

You didn't buy the book -> you download book without drm -> you have the book without drm

People are going to do whatever they want in the end. The same holds true for music. I mean honestly, I can't think of a single person I know or have ever met who has never made use of illegally downloaded music (knowingly, or unknowingly, as a gift or whatever). So.. do whatever you feel is morally right I guess?
