My case exactly. This is the subtlest and most powerful DRM that any company could devise. If you accept that you don't have the book, the Kindle 1984's affair can be child's play in comparison to what Google could do with a book "in the cloud".
Plus, what good is to "buy the book" if I go elsewhere with no Wifi or 3G possibility, and thus become unable to read what I bought?
