I'm not used to ADE since I much prefer Amazon and think ADE is slow clumsy annoying and generally a horrible experience. Forgot you can do that.
But this doesn't help if you only had it on your computer, say for example you aren't one of those people who keeps their entire library on their device? When their computer breaks, th bok is gone!
... and I guess that is no longer a problem of the DRM, which was a big part of my argument.

Sony has handled the transition very well. They found a partner to transfer your account to. They kept alive your Sony account after the bookstore closed to give you ample time to download your books. They are updating their Sony software to link to Kobo as well as updating the ereader firmware. They send many emails communicating the issue. Other bookstores have just simply closed.

Except for the part where some books are "incompatible".
