Hey all,

Not an eReader user by any means, so I'm pretty clueless on the topic.

Basically is there any particular eReader that will be more DRM friendly than others?

My father is a huge reader, his house is a library but is exploring the option of going paperless since he spends most of his aging years at fast food chains sitting there 4 hours at a shot reading. Strange, you bet ya.

His major concern is he wants an eReader but doesn't want to get locked into a certain online book library, and wants to be able to use file formats across the different stores. I think you have an idea of what I'm getting at.

Figured this would be the place to ask.

Thanks very much
