There are so many great books out there that I have never read (and there are more coming) that I rarely find a book so compelling that I need to read it a second time. (That is the significant difference between DRM on music and on books - I can imagine that in ten years I'll have listened to my purchased music dozens of times, and will still want to listen to most of it, so a DRM failure would be angering; while any purchased books I'll likely not be all that concerned about if I lose rights to read it again, if I've already read it.)
