None of which is permitted with DRMed eBooks.

If that's how you want to waste your money...
But judging by the number of used eBooks I see on Amazon and such, I'd say that most people want to get the residual value back from their books.
In my case, I would rather pay $20 for a book, read it, sell it used for $10 and then use that $10 to get another book.
If I wanted to read a book and then get rid of it, I'd go to the library where they let me do that for free.
