You really can't claim a lost sale for situations that have only arisen precisely
because of the application of DRM. That's double-dipping, meta-crap right there.
"Without DRM, no one would be forced to buy the additional copies of books that DRM was forcing them to buy. Those are lost sales!"
That's just silly--no matter which side of the DRM argument you come down on.
