I had a conversation with an old friend who is a college professor now. I tossed out the idea that perhaps the electronic text books should be distributed to all students who take the class, for a standard fee paid for as part of taking the class. No issues with resale, no issues with DRM, etc. Using Lulu or some such service, they could print a paper copy if they wanted to. I would think this arrangement would work well for the publishers, since they have a guaranteed revenue stream, no more used sales, no concerns about DRM, etc.
