DRM restrictions typically mean that a book you buy won't always be readable if you decide to use a different ereader in the future. Obviously that is considered a problem by lots of people, hence Apprentice Alf's tools.

To remove the DRM from your books in order that you can use your own property however you darn well want see this blog: http://apprenticealf.wordpress.com
As long as no walkthroughs and stuff are posted here, it is fine to merely link to outside locations where such guides may be found.



(This doesn't appear to be very well-known yet, I even once had to correct a moderator who erroneously removed the link from my post. He hadn't heard the news yet, and apologized. )
