And people wonder why I think DRM is bad?

"May not move the file to a different computer" is a real nice one. So, you download it within the 14-day window to your one-and-only computer, 15 days from now said computer craps out ... and you've just lost your book. Or books. Or library.
Friends don't let friends buy DRM'd ebooks.
