No need to remove it now as long as you know you can in the future unless the DRM is getting in the way of your reading (such as if you change to another manufacturers ereader)
Paul or DD might chime here, but I don't believe that is universally true. In some systems, if you cannot access the the server at that future date, you can't access your content to do the stripping. MS's LIT was a prime example of this happening in real life.

Remember that none of the current stripping solutions actually "break" the DRM in a cryptography cracking sense. They merely use the access you legitimately have in a novel way.
