Save a copy and return the original?
I wouldn't call it wrong.
Let's think about one of the big reasons for tech: so you can always retain your stuff. Always. Clearly, ebook stores acknowledge this as being true, because they will often allow you to re-download a book, even if it's DRM'ed. What are you paying for when you buy an ebook? The actual production cost per copy is almost nothing. What you're paying for is space-saving, convenience, and the retain-ability of your content. The last two are the important ones, here.
These companies have stopped giving you what you paid for. Well, actually, they never gave you what you paid for in the first place. You paid to own the book, and as they sold them, you never did. That is, unless you stripped the DRM. What they sold you was a broken product from the word "go" which you had to fix yourself.
Go for it.
