Well, I do consider a book "liberated" when DRM is removed, but indeed, it is low on my list of "life is not fair", issues too, in the grand scheme of things. My mother died recently, for instance, and that bugs me more than DRM in some book. But when discussing books, and e-reading, different people have different standards and I respect that.

For the context of book buying standards, I do find DRM highly annoying, though, and still take a stand for what I want in my recreational spending. Reading is a recreation, and therefore I have the option and leisure, to buy and use only what works for me. But for the most part, I buy tree books since they work best for my household as a whole.

Clearly people who remove DRM from books also don't like DRM, otherwise they wouldn't bother starting kids really young teaching them how.
