I think this is why publishers insisted B&N upgrade their security. B&N's social DRM made it easy to share books with friends and family, no DRM removal required. All you had to do was input your username and CC in their device, and they would be able to read any book you gave them going forward. If you make them close their eyes while you do it, they won't even know your CC as it's immediately translated into a passhash and not recorded in the device anywhere.
