You are wrong to say removing DRM is piracy, or only the prelude to sharing the file. And even legally it is far from clear that you are not within your rights to remove DRM to make a private backup copy or move the file to another device you own. The agreement you signed might well be invalid in that regard. No court has ruled on it. And as long as you have paid for the file and don't give it away, why should anyone care? It wouldn't look good for the publishers to go after their paying customers if they fully abide by the spirit of the law.
