Mom has a pBook she's just finished reading. I've never read anything by that author and borrow the book from her. I read it and I like it and then I decide I want to buy more books from this author to read. Sales happen.
Mom has a DRMed eBook and the DRM is tied to her account and not mine. I don't get to read it, I don't then buy more eBooks from this author. Sales do not happen. The author and publisher lose sales because of the DRM.
So in these cases, no DRM is a good thing and DRM is a bad thing. stonetools, go ahead and prove me wrong.
