If you were only a reader you couldn't possibly be arguing like that. I, personally, have acknowledged that it is a good thing that we can have the books on several devices simultaneously -- something we don't have with pbooks. But that is how far the pros go for users.
You are like somebody arguing that a car that leaks oil is good for us -- hey, it has a big trunk, you can keep lots of spare oil cans in the back! DRM in its current state is designed to make you re-buy your books, it is planned obsolescence. DRM has nothing to do with piracy.
