Does your one act of piracy matter? No, not really. But it's the cumulative impact of hundreds of thousands of them that matter.

1) Removing DRM from a checked-out library book is not "copying".
2) This is not an act of piracy.
You guys on the "removing DRM is bad" argument are forgetting that the author has been paid, and the user of the book is not reselling it, nor letting friends borrow it, nor posting it online, etc.
DRM is only there to prevent copies from being made and distributed or resold, not to keep the original purchaser from enjoying the product the way they want.
