Well personally, I think that ebooks (well at least those that are novels) by many of the big publishers are too expensive in the first place (Not that I want the authors to get less money, but I know, they tend to only get a very small percentage of the actual money from the sale of a book, even though they are essentially responsible for 70-99% of the value (Value is added in editing and publishing as an ebook, but how much the editing is worth definitely depends on the author and the editor involved).

To answer the original question, I will not pay more for an ebook without DRM. Why not? Because it is insulting that we should be asked to pay more to be allowed to do with a book that which is already ours to do by right.
