It's really all about customer service. Amazon are very good at customer service. If publishers decided to stop using DRM I expect that Amazon would be pleased - one less complication for their software development team.

That is a very good point. Perhaps the difference is that the DRM on DVDs and Blu-Ray don't really cost the DVD makers any money per copy, since it's done on a per-movie basis rather than a per-copy basis.
Personally, I don't think that the DRM on DVDs and Blu-Ray does any good for the creators, and like other DRM schemes just annoys the people who actually pay money for content. Pirates, of course, never see the DRM at all.
