Very interesting, but in some cases it doesn't matter if you can't lend or resell your books. I like the idea of being able to keep all the books I buy, and not have to find room for them on already bursting bookshelves! And I stopped lending books out, at least books I care about--it seems that I rarely get them back.
Though this week it came up. We have a book group at work and I bought the book we are reading as an ebook. A co-worker heard I had finished it (great book--Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult) and asked if she could borrow it. Oh well!
The main thing I worry about with DRM is portability. I want to be able to read these books on my next device, and my next device...
