I agree and disagree! I don't think that DRM itself is a scam, but when it is used to 'bind you to specific platforms' it most certainly is. |
And it always is. You can only read Mobi, eReader and MS Reader books on the platforms that they support. In the world of music: which PDAs can you play iTunes music on? That's right: none. etc. etc.
Do you think Palm would be allowed to read MS Reader files if they asked? Or the new Sony reader?
