So is everyone who stops purchasing DRM eBooks going to bother to contact every publisher of every eBook with DRM that s/he would have purchased but will not due to DRM and tell them why it's not being purchased? If not, all the publishers will see is the decline of eBook sales and then we'll see the decline of eBooks.

The thing is, are you going to hold off 2-10 years reading books you want to just because they have DRM? I'm not willing to wait that long. Who is willing to wait 2-10 years to purchase any eBooks that have DRM? Are you going to be satisfied with just the offerings that do not have DRM? Given what I see most people reading here, I'd say the answer is overall a no.
