Is it Amazon's fault that other bookstores have chosen to use Adobe DRM?

No. But it is amazon fault not to have moved to ePub when (almost) everyone else did.
That quite like iTunes, they are proposing aac, i need mp3. no buy.
Hopefully, the publishers will come to their senses, like the music industry did, and we'll see drm free. Though my main annoyance right now is geo restrictions.
Yeah, i could convert and strip the drm, but, haven't yet found a book i wanted that was on amazon, and not somewhere else.
Right now, the only store that don't geo-restrict me too much (in english), is amazon. But I will go to borders, that provide me with the right format. Even if they geo restrict me, and are more expensive. The striping drm / converting / fixing being the most time consuming option, it will be only as a last resort.
And, the amazon app don't work on linux, so restart on windows needed...
