This is an interesting question. I considered a similar question back when ebook DRM removal tools first became available whether or not to start buying DRMed ebooks.

I just don't see any such action having a significant effect. The number of people who pay attention to such things is just too small.

Perhaps I'm wrong. I've certainly wondered whether I did the right thing by starting to buy DRMed ebooks. But I don't think I'll be joining any such boycotts.
