I don't want to disappoint the industry's opinion of me. so I guess I should go on a shopping spree, buy all these DRM'd things, and then strip DRM off of them so I could upload them! And because the majority of us are thieves, I'm also going to insist that everyone else who doesn't like DRM does the same as me.

Then we can all have Upload Friday Parties. Every Friday, we all pick one ebook, go buy it, strip the DRM, and each one of us uploads their own copy! I mean... if 500 people upload Harry Potter, then we could steal it 500 times!
