Well, several people have been saying that ePUB would not be much of a standard if it was wrapped in various, incompatible DRM schemes -- sounds like they are right. Essentially, the DRM will be the 'format'.
Having said that, since I already buy eReader books (when I buy DRM-protected books, which I prefer to avoid, but eReader seems about the least restrictive), this sounds like a nice upgrade in capabilities for what has been a rather dated format.
I hope/assume this also means that Fictionwise will start offering ePUB versions of their multi-format books in the near future?
