I do re-read my books. And i like having all my book at hand, that is, on the reader memory. I have little trust in cloud thing. Woops ! no connexion. Wooops ! amazon's server are down.

When switching to ePub, i did convert all my books, even the ones i haven't re-read yet.

Adobe can change its DRM and those using Adobe's drm will have to change or develop their own DRM. Adobe controls its DRM the same way Amazon controls its DRM. Different comapny, same end result.
I had forgotten that part of the process goes though adobe servers. On the other hand, amazon's user would be hardly pissed with amazon changing drm, amazon would be able to make sure things works. Because amazon also control the shop and e-reader as well as drm.

The people paying to use adobe drm would surely have a problem with adobe making a mess of things and telling them "update or die".
