True, that's why we need an open standard.
I agree that the best solution from a consumer perspective would be DRM free ePub, but unfortunately, content providers are not ready to remove DRM yet (it'll happen one day, take a look at the music industry).
In the meantime I'd rather use a DRM format that's not linked to a specific store or device (Kindle & Amazon or Sony & eBookStore are good examples of what a consumer should avoid).
