DRM and retailers

Just been reading the thread about BoB demise. Several comments along the lines of whent he retailer goes under the DRM will no longer activate the e-book.

I thought all the epub DRM went rhough Adobe's Digital Editions, and hence was independant of retailer. Providing Adobe stay's in business (ok not a given but quite likely for a while), then the ebooks will continue to work fine?

I'm sure there are other DRM solutions out there, but I've only ever come across ADE. Can someone confirm my understanding is correct?

Otherwise I've got a heck of a lot of stripping to do.

Thanks
