"I won't buy your DRM'd product" would probably be more to the point.

Just an observation.
The problem is either we buy the DRM book and break the DRM or we put up with DRM. And if we do not purchase the DRM books, the publishers will think ebooks are a failure and not publish them. They won't be thinking "Oh they don't want to buy DRM books so we'll remove the DRM and sell them." They don't think like us. They think like we are all cheats and thieves.
