To crack a less known drm you will have to hire a good programmer instead you can directly buy.

I think our two views will never meet. My view: If I want your content, I'll pay for it. Your view, if you want my content, you'll steal it.

I like the eink readers I have now, if you want to start a webstore that doesn't work with them, or an indie publisher that doesn't publish for my reader, I'll most likely forgo your content. And I want to be resonably sure I'll be able to read the content on hardware of my chosing in the future.

If I have to hire a programmer to strip the DRM to read what I paid for, I'll forgo the pleasure of your content.
