@HarryT, @DoctorOhh,

All of that only lasts until you switch computers, at which point it is rather difficult to transfer your ADE authentication. (You can re-authenticate with the same ID, but where do you redownload your books from?) And then you are limited to the ereader(s) the book is currently on. Which will also eventually break/stop working/get replaced. I guess you can transfer the books, if you still have them accessible somewhere.

Which is really helpful for the people who don't back up their books. And, coincidentally, these are the people who probably didn't Alf them (which gets around the whole probem altogether).

I believe Sony has a responsibility to ensure that your content remains accessible once you purchase it. That guarantee is gone once they close down and fail to transfer all their titles over to a new content server!!
