DRM is out of control, yet some publishers are waking up to going DRM-free like Baen and Tor. I look for DRM-free books when I purchase, and get DRMed books via the library/Overdrive. What really offends me is publishers blocking text-to-speech, that seems unconscionable as it can be a very important feature for vision impaired people. That is a pure-greed move as they want to sell the more expensive audio book. Some people prefer text-to-speech vs audio book.
