And the possibility of ending up in legal entanglement is slim to none and you know it.
You can rant and rave all you want, but the fact remains that the majority of otherwise law abiding citizens don't give a crap about this toothless law. What they care about is keeping and securing their legally bought and paid for property.
We simply refuse to be held hostage to greedy corporations who would prefer for us to keep rebuying the same books over and over again whenever they decide to switch formats, servers, go out of business, or whatever. It's NOT going to happen.
It didn't work for mp3s and it's not going to work for ebooks.
Just because a law is on the books doesn't mean that it is just or that it is right. There have been plenty that have been struck down. My guess is that this will be one of them as far as personal use goes. And in the meantime, people will continue to strip drm.
