The statement also seems to be implying that the book is in fact free of DRM. Direct download of drm free epubs with an express permission to read on other devices (and an implied one to convert the file to do so if necessary)? That would be a step in the right direction. But can it simply be an online store, or must a card be purchased from a bricks and mortar store? Which stores have these cards? And those terms and conditions remain terrible, irrespective of whether they are actually enforced.
