So I have three choices:
  1. Buy a kindle (but I already have a reader and don't want to have another, and don't want to spend a $139.99 surcharge for the privilege of reading this author)
  2. Learn how to break amazon DRM (free, and once I've done it I can apply my skills into the future.)
  3. Don't buy any more books from this author

Hmmm... I rule out #1 right away. Five seconds of googling and I discover that #2 is quite trivial, so now I just need to decide if I won't support this author anymore on moral grounds, or if I'll still buy the books, but break the DRM (which is currently legal in Canada - at least until parliament next sits, at which point I might become a criminal for trying to read the book I bought on the device I bought.)
