I do not underestimate people in any way.
If it did not matter to sales, The agency book sellers would simply state they are leasing the works of authors, an no DRM scheme dreamed up yet would require any additional legislation of any sort to become enforcible. Just like the limitations when you lease a car. There would be no question when they go after pwople who copy and give out said works either - the public understands the limited use that comes with rental.
Win/win for the publishers.
Unless of course, the public would compare their offerings to those of authors who choose to sell open use of their works.
If it doesn't matter, how come Penguin or someone isn't doing it now?
