Perhaps also, people are finally cottoning onto the fact that even though the amazon site says "Buy now with 1-click"", that is misleading since for DRM'd ebooks you are not actually buying an ebook at all, but actually leasing or renting it in a narrowly defined way where you can't actually do what you want with the ebook you just bought.

Hopefully publishers will do what the music industry finally did, allow their wares to be widely sold DRM-free. Or, also like the music industry is doing now, give away the ebook with the purchase of the physical book, it's so obvious, a lot of us have been saying that for years, and only a few small specialty publishers have actually done it.
