It seems pretty silly to be paying over that kind of money for something that does you no good.
THe publishers who read the balance sheets and have the inside info about the industry and who are directly responsible of financial success of their companies think that DRM is necessary at this time and is well worth the investment. You -who have no access to the financial records of the companies and have no responsibility to the authors and employees of the publishing houses-want them to abandon DRM.
At this point I'm going to have to go with guys with the inside info and the responsibility. They may be dead wrong, but that's the way to bet.

I notice that no one even WANTS to consider a middle way-a better DRM. But then, ideological purists do tend to scorn the middle way. Oh well.
OK, I think we're done here. Good discussion guys.
