So, for me, an eBook with DRM might as well be no eBook at all.
It is awful that you have broken the screen of your sony and I hope you are able to get it fixed quickly.

If you had bought a paper book which became damaged, you would not be able to read it either.

An e-book without DRM would also be useless to you once you have broken your device, given your statement thta you dnt read from the computer due to migraines.
