I simply will not buy music (or video) burdened with DRM.

Nor will I buy ebooks with DRM unless I can immediately remove it.

I find it ironic that Amazon made a big splash into the music market trumpeting the fact that they were DRM-free...yet seem to be very much in favor of DRM for ebooks when they can use it to lock people in to using their own hardware.
