Tor has been DRM-free for well over a year now. If they had seen any problems from going DRM-free, I'm sure they would have gone back to using DRM.

I suggest that you recommend that the publishers save money by being DRM-free.

If they insist on DRM, try advocating for 'social' DRM, where every copy is tagged with the purchaser's details. Preferably will a pretty Ex-Libris bookplate as I suggest above.

HTH
A suggestion that makes sense. Thank you.
