I'd certainly agree on the convenience front - I buy almost exclusively from Amazon now, mainly for that reason. Other devices are better in various ways, other ebook formats are better, but the important thing for me is to be able to get at the content, with the minimum hassle. Having to read within their time limit, or having to read only when online would destroy that convenience for me, so I don't think that they are likely to come up with a rental service that satisfies both my needs for convenience, and the publishers demands for security. Still - I hope I'm wrong!
