I am glad to hear that. I think these efforts would be more efficient when chanelling together in some formal way. Maybe hiring some bigshot lawyers? I don't know. I for one am willing to spend money on this purpose.

Well, I think we can safely say that the number of e-book reading people is well above one million. If only half of them spent half the price of a cheap e-book on this purpose that would be quite a sum.

Well, I think that is one more reason to try harder because it seems they won't give in by themselves.

No offense taken I was just surprised after all the DRM bashing here. Nevermind.
