Were it not for my digging around for "how to", and hard work on my part, I'd still be really sad that the money I had paid for was lost forever with nothing to show.
But, to be fair, this (and the previous post) is a complaint about bad DRM systems, which the Adept/ADE combo is. If the DRM had been completely transparent, and the book just magically appeared on your Kindle/iThing, you probably wouldn't have had have such a strong response.
