In reality there is an alternative. If DRM is too strong i will stop to buy books and read only pirated books. Already today i didn't buy Sergio Bonelli editore comics because their DRM but i read only pirated (bonelli) comics while i always bought Ratman Zerocalcare fumettibrutti eccetera. I haven't no problems to stop other boughts if Drm is too strong.
