I should make note that if the DRM is usable on one of my devices, then I do not strip. I've just been burned where after I bought something I found out that it had proprietary DRM that would not run on anything I had. My options at the time was to not use the book (and suffer the consequences in class), strip the DRM and use it, or go out and find a paper copy and pay for that.
What really upset me about it was that it wasn't clear it was a rental until after the fact. Appeared as if it was a purchase, and then if you looked in the details of the DRM on the downloaded file, it listed various restrictions (such as cannot print, etc) that it expired after 6 months.
