Most of the time, it is relatively trivial to save copies once the original is open. Remember, you only need one person to do this, then the book is "in the wild" and everyone else can get the stripped version. Most pirates don't even remove the DRM themselves. One person does that (the uploader), everyone else downloads it with the DRM already removed.
