You make a point, however most sellers use a single DRM system that permits the user to buy the same product from a number of sellers. It is generally not the seller but the publisher that establishes DRM. But to keep this information correct, Apple does use a proprietary DRM scheme. However the reader can use non-DRM products formatted in industry standard ePub or PDF formats.
