My moral system is very different. I see no problem (at all) with paying for DRMed content.
"Supporting DRM means supporting a world where you have to pay rent and seek permission from corporate overlords to use your own devices in the way you wish"
No. It means paying content creators for access to their content on my device. I'm using my device however I like, I just don't get access to the hard work of others on exactly my terms all of the time.
And that's ok.
