But how many of the ,obi format books out there are OD vs. MP? When the DRM servers was taken down, most books were unavailable.

And how would lack of DRM servers help with that? If a company's servers went down, you still wouldn't be able to buy eBooks from them, DRM or no DRM.

That's the point. if the DRM servers were to be taken down or not working, we'd not be able to get most of the content because they are tied into DRm which needs these servers. Let's say Mobipocket was to go down, I know books could then be made using OD's DRM server. But that won't help with all the books out there that use MP's DRM server. It's a real problem. We are giving these 4 companies most of the control for the entire world. That's not fair.
