So when I put my book up on B&N website, I clicked NO DRM.
I've learned a lot since I first started this ebook thing.

I'm on your side. Had long chat with a favoured writer, Jeffery Carver, about these DRMs. He pointed me to Python & Caliber. A few of his books are free and I like them so much, I donated funds to him to encourage his continued writing.
I understand about the passion behind what folks are good at doing, but I do know it doesn't pay the rent like money does.
I pay for what I read and object strenuously to copies being freely and illegal distributed. This applies to Software, books, music.....
What I get upset at is a Vendor restricting my purchase from being used on a better Reader. Like buying a Ford and only being allowed to drive it on Ford's roads
