But by the same token, isn't it also the format that keeps users from bringing their books over? They could have the same DRM scheme, but if the AZW format was the only one that Amazon sold (as they do now) users would be in the same position, wouldn't they? Will an unconverted, non-DRM AZW file work any better on a Nook than a DRM'ed one would? I think daffy4u made the same point. It's not the DRM that makes the difference that they're talking about.
