Since there are no politicians not in the pocket of big business, laws aren't going to change it.

It's simple enough to me. Buy ebooks with no DRM. Don't buy ebooks with DRM. Vote with your wallet.

There's a slim possibility at some point DRM comes up against the DMCA and we win in the court system...but who knows. The higher courts are often aligned with big business too.
