Deja Vu all over again as Y Berra once said. About 15 years ago the photographic industry was going nuts over the introduction of digital cameras. The complaints were that the feel was not the same as film, that the quality was not good, the devices too expensive and would never catch on nor become reliable enough.
Unless the world economy totally tanks there is no way our beloved readers will fail. The DRM thing will get sorted out as will format issues and so on.
I don't often re read books so for me it is not an issue but reading the thread on re reading it seems lots of people do. DRM as a principle is not the problem. The problem is the hoops we are sometimes forced to jump through for DRM.
