I haven't said I haven't gone down the DRM removal road, but once again, why should I have to. And for me anyway, that is more about making sure I have a usable backup of what I own, despite others disputing that ownership.
As for people buying their own reader, well normally that would be something they do for their own account, not an extra device on someone else's account. Whichever way you look at it, if we want to share with each other, we all have to buy multiple devices for multiple accounts.
