I can't help thinking of the uproar if iTunes were to say, "Okay, you can only listen to this song 10 times then we're gonna delete it from your account and make you buy it again."
Some people take DAMN GOOD care of their books (and library books!) and expect them to last a lifetime. To have the manufacturer tell us how often we have to replace the things we've bought is abhorrent. This is a power-grab by HC, pure and simple.
