After I lost those purchases, I made sure that I either bought non-DRM products, or stripped the DRM off to ensure that I would retain the ability to access what I had bought no matter what device I used.

We've all been there and been just as PO'd as you. And that is why I made a personal decision to strip all the content I buy.

The legal liability issue is a
moot point either way."
I don't think that word means what you think it means.
