The only site I ever ran into that forced the hardened DRM with ACS is no longer in business--some sites implement but do not force so older versions of ADE will receive the old version of DRM.

Personally, I am still using ADE 2.0.1.78765.
So if you want to be able to remove the DRM, don't upgrade past ADE 2.0.1.78765. While it still works, that's the version of ADE I'm sticking with.

I'm not sure if you can install a newer ADE alongside this version. And if you can, I'm not sure if the DM Removal tools would have an issue or not.
