I still believe that the best -- and perfectly legal -- form of protest is to only buy DRM-free books and make a lot of noise about the issue. Let publishers who use DRM know that you will NOT buy their books until they get with the program.

If readers voted with their wallets to catapult DRM-free books to the top of the best-seller lists and wrote more articles drawing attention to the issue, publishers would fall into line. Once they realize that DRM actually COSTS them a huge number of sales, they will change their policies.
