The Fictionwise closing isn't really a DRM issue. I remember while Fictionwise was still in operation that one was supposed to download purchased titles within a relatively short period of time after purchase - which I think might have been a week? It was written on the receipt emails.
There were ebooks that I had purchased from them that I failed to download in that time period, and a month later when I went to download them they were no longer available for download. Fictionwise told me that there was nothing they could do about it; they no longer had access to the titles, either. These were Random House ebooks, and their contract with Random House had expired.
I actually ended up getting to download these missing titles after B&N closed Fictionwise and moved the ebooks to my Nook account. There were about a dozen of them, and I was pleasantly surprised to get them back.
