I did not know the other schemes were the same, basically, as Amazon's. That's nice.
As an OT note, when I had my Touch 4, they limit the total number of Audible accounts you can have activated in iTunes or was it on your device? Maybe it was on the device itself. So you can only have content from 2-accounts on any one of your devices at any given time. We have either four or five accounts and share content via our MP3 players. Don't know if it's an Audible limit or Apple but it is an example of a very frustrating effect from DRM. Of course Audible needs to rework their whole site and system, again, to something closer to how Amazon has the "Manage your Kindle" section. At least now we can link our Audible and Amazon accounts which is nice.

As far as I know, it all boils down to Mobi doing that. From what I remember, Mobi's Terms of use prevents this from happening, not ADE's. Also, Amazon has been the owner of Mobipocket since 2005. Point the finger at Amazon.

did I botch that memory? Could be that was the case. I din't verify the issue when I posted but I do seem to recall that Adobe has the same or at least similar policy. Yet oddly enough no matter what the DRM in question, it's only for dedicated reading devices not general purpose devices. I suppose that part was or still is about, oh heck who knows anymore.
I will try and dig into that later today because I wanna know for sure don't know why but just do is all.
