But even better, if no safety then it's plenty of time to grab an extra clip.

While I do agree that a lot of "typical" users would not automatically know the situation with DRM and format changes...one simple google search will change that within 15 minutes or less.
Just because the "typical user" does not know about DRM and it's effects at this moment is no reason to assume that the typical user is not intelligent and can't figure it out. I was the "typical user" prior to finding MobileRead.
