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.

Sometimes the only choice is to buy DRMed. But in this case, there are other things to read and buying exclusives from Amazon let's Amazon know it's OK to do that and it's not OK. It's far from OK. It's Amazon stealing works that should be available in all formats for everyone.
