You seem to be ignorant of the law. Breaking DRM is not illegal in the U.S.

The DMCA only prohibits you from figuring out how to break DRM and then publishing (in either code or written word) how it was done.

If you want to crack the DRM on your eBooks, you are free do do so. You just can't tell anyone how you did it.

It's perfectly legal for me to download some software to rip my DVDs to play on my portable video player. It's not legal for me to distribute such software.
