And using a RMSDK10 based reader does not change a thing. I understand the concern, and Adobe screwed up the messaging around this at the time of release. Adobe needs to be carefully observed moving forward for sure, and believe you me I'm doing that x10000, but that chapter is closed.
I know it's not a problem now, but it will be in the future. That's why I am putting out the warning now. Because if people continue to download DRMed ePub via Bluefire, one day they will find themselves screwed.
