Whilst I could probably circumvent DRM, via stripping, I've chosen to boycott it instead. It will be interesting to see what happens in five or ten years time, when people with e-readers try to move the DRM restricted books that they've bought to other devices, based on different technologies.
No problems here, I know how to strip the DRM so moving books is easy. If people have large enough libraries, they will be motivated to learn how to strip the DRM off of books if they change e-readers.
