Authors and their agents could be shown it as well, as they are the ones often negotiating separate territorial contracts.
I do think the book industry is listening and not just blindly following the music business' mistakes. Although both industries are using the web and downloading they are quite different. Although many who actually care enough to write to forums are so anti DRM, many others will see the business need to protect intellectual property from a free for all where no one can earn a living out of writing because the readers expect it all for free.
