Does this mean that iBooks will ladden ePub with the iTunes AAC Drm?
Apple's DRM is Fairplay.

AAC is just an audio format, with or without DRM. As of today, you can't buy an AAC music file on iTunes with DRM. Films and TV shows on iTunes are MP4/H264 format, with DRM.

And, we just don't know, but my bet is that Apple won't use someone else's DRM scheme.
