So, is it wrong of me to learn how to strip a DRM and make that book available to any future devices?
One of the reasons I decided personally to standardise on MobiPocket format some time ago was that it's available on a far wider range of devices than any other DRM format. I don't know what device I'll be reading my books on in 5 years time, but I'm pretty confident that, whatever it is, it'll support MobiPocket.
