IOW, they are experiencing the downside of their own proprietary, DRM-based system.
But hopefully they'll recover soon, when the initial surge is over. |
A lot of people would not know how to convert. They just want to download and read, not be technical. And the conversion software would have to run on the iPhone if they were to take your suggestion.
