@DaleDe: it may not be different, as I haven't explored eReader, etc. Any system which keys the book to the user rather than to a device, and provides a unique transaction between buyer/seller (meaning, the book they sell me is demonstrably different from the "same" book they sell you), and that doesn't limit personal use of my book, would work.
I think the systems you describe are different, if they key to "multiple devices"... a fundamental difference is the system I propose publishers adopt doesn't key to a device, anymore than you are chained to a particular computer to login to your webmail.
