I think it depends on if you own the item or not, and what you do with it. If you own it then it should be yours to do what you will, short of loading it into a torrent file and distributing it to the WWW for free. If you do that, then that is theft. If however you strip the DRM only for the purposes of having a backup copy for your own use should something happen I can't see how that constitutes theft as you have already purchased the book in question.
