But the real quandary I have is if these people are so adamant that what they are doing is right, and so easy, and at least in cfrizz's case, daring someone to do something about it, why then are they complaining so mightily in outrage, whining and blaming the Sellers, Publishers, and Authors for causing them so much trouble, and even accusing the Sellers, Publishers and Authors of painting them in a bad light.
Maybe the truth is that DRM works. It keeps pilferage down. The evidence is plain if you listen to the caterwauling on this thread. These people are hurting. I feel a little safer.

Just what misdeed have I done? You got your money from my purchasing your book end of story.
My copy is staying in my possession on my reader/tablet/computer. No one else has access to it so it is perfectly safe.
I havn't pilfered anything, I paid for MY copy of the book.
I am an ordinary, non-tech ereader, but after reading about other peoples drm problems, I decided it was in my best financial interest to learn how to ensure that I don't have to make additional purchases of books I have already purchased.
All drm does is force people like me to learn a few simple steps to protect ourselves from being taken advantage of by others.
BTW, I'm a she, not a he.
