I was wondering how epub DRM works: Who runs the DRM server. Is it Adobe, or the store. Specifically, if B&N goes out of business, will customers still have access to their purchases?

I know that the books already downloaded are accessible. Here is the scenario I am trying to figure out: Assume I own an epub device. I buy and download a book. Then B&N goes bankrupt. Later the reader breaks and I have to replace it with a different brand. Will I be able to access the book on the new device? Or, does access end if B&N disappears?

Thanks,
MLH
