By the way, all this time, I've been giving posters the benefit of the doubt when it comes to things like "follow the seller's terms or don't buy the book". Well, just out of curiosity, I decided to go look up what the all-important "seller's terms" are for common booksellers.

Amazon of course explicitly warns against breaking DRM in its terms so that's fine. Since I have a nook, I was more curious about B&N and wouldn't you know it - I couldn't find anything (even remotely) to this effect on their site. Of course, I may have just missed it. Can some moral soul please direct me to it? I have this sudden urge to print out the terms, tape them to the wall and pray to them before I go to bed each night. If only I could find the DRM hellfire clause, it would make my new theology complete ... . That should teach me to take such statements on good faith .

For your reference, the only thing I found about drm on the entire B&N site is here . Look for this section - "What does DRM mean, and how will it affect my eBook ownership?" It seems that (barring any extra information I missed), I've followed every single term set forth by B&N. Awww, and here I was - feeling all rebellious and stuff .

I repeat - any more information is welcome .
