The trick for you then is to have a 2 decade backlog of books to read.
I totally agree with you. Fortunately, so far, the only DRM's that I've seen that haven't been broken are mostly tied to a small enough ebook store that there just wasn't enough interest in cracking it. The trend seems to be less ebooks with DRM. I'm seeing more and more ebooks from different publishing houses that start with a "this book has been provided without DRM by request of the publisher..." Just picked up Charlaine Harris's latest from Simon and Schuster that had that notice.
