Removing DRM is probably illegal in the US, too. The DMCA forbids tampering with copy protection, so essentially the only digital media you can still legally copy for personal use is a music CD, as CD audio has no copy protection. Copying a DVD/Blu-ray/video game/e-book would be illegal. The DMCA gutted the concept of fair use.
