The DRM issue should not be a primary one as there will always be somebody out there who (if even for a price) will figure out a way to break it open for you and allow you to move your purchases to a different machine.

Well, that's the key. I'm not using the computer I was in the early 80's, but I do have text files that I created back then.
I don't expect to be using the same devices years from now, but I do expect to be able to read any eBooks I have "purchased." Which is why I won't buy any books with DRM that I can't remove.
