I don't think you were rambling, and I think you're right, the STEP system is relevant as history to our current situation. And you're right about the warning of eroding format support, too. Which is part of why so many of us feel uncomfortable accepting DRM at all (especially those of us who re-read heavily).

I personally don't see a need for DRM outside of library loan systems and the like, but I know most publishers aren't there yet. I guess we'll see if what's happening in the music industry changes their minds at all.
