"Digital Rights Management". The "locking" of an e-book to a specific device. Eg, when you buy a MobiPocket book you can enter the IDs of up to (generally) four MobiPocket devices on the web site you buy the book from. The eBook can then be read on those devices only. There is software available to remove most forms of DRM, which is legal to do in some countries, but not others.
