Oh it's hilarious. By sellling DRM Adobe not only is not guaranteeing anything to anyone using the DRM, they are actually locking people into using their software to download and read books, thereby establishing a handy little monopoly. And they have the gall to charge for it on top of that.
But the greatest irony is that publishers are actually silly enough to pay
Reminds me off the famous story about Kalidasa, who once tried to saw off a tree branch, while sitting on it!
