What I can't understand is how the book publishers are willing to spend $0.22+ per ebook on Adobe's DRM.

Dropping DRM and increasing profit per ebook by $0.22 should be a no-brainer.
Perhaps they think right or wrong that selling x books at 9.99 is marginally better than selling less books at 9.77. Go figure.
