I would contact the author directly, and politely explain him that his publisher is not allowing me to buy his book; and also that I have (at least in the Netherlands) the legal alternative means of downloading it from some unauthorized source, that unfortunately will not result in royalties being paid to him either, but that you are willing to donate such missed royalties directly to him.
Readers really should try to get authors on their side in their fight against customer unfriendly behaviour of publishers.
