You know, my feeling for rms is quite bipolar. On one hand, I respect the severity of his commitment. On the other hand, as time passes, he sounds more and more like those extremist whackjobs. Seriously.

For example, what is wrong with paying for digital services on the web? I mean, serious, what is wrong with it? Or, I found his opinion on Netflix quite funny. Netflix never intends to sell its users anything. The whole premise is to watch without buying. Like library (but you pay for the service). You can't exactly complain that you can't, says, tear apart a library book, can you? So, why DRM on Netfix a problem? The users don't own those video! Well o well.

I don't think he finds paying for digital services unethical, but he chooses not to since that payment is always personally identifiable (since you have to have an account, use a credit card, etc). He has 2 major stances outlined here -- an ethical opinion on free software, and a personal choice on privacy.
