These cards would allow the DRM to be tied to the card so it cannot be copied.....done reading, pass it on to your friends. Just like a paper-based book.
Want to buy an ebook either online or in a store? Mount up your SD card have the book loaded directly to it.
Now to get publishers and ebook reader manufacturers to support it.

SD cards already have that ability. That is why they call them Secure Digital.
