Pretty much most of what I read had DRM on it.
If I could not back them up anymore, I would not buy anywhere but Amazon. Of all the places, I trust them most to stick around the longest and not leave me hanging in the case of doom.
I think I would though drift even more to the library to get my ebooks and those that aren't at the library I would put on wishlist for price reduction and then buy them.
I read for years kindle books with DRM and never knew anything about Alf so its not like it killed me then. Now all those books are freed, but I will still read what I want to read, even if that is not an option anymore. Like I said, what I want to read, tends to have DRM as it will be mostly with publishers. There is no substitute for the stuff I want to read.
I'll deal with whatever comes. I just want to read in the end. Even if I felt a bit better having a back up of the books I bought. Its not a deal breaker overall. But only with kindle books. I would never buy a epub anywhere.
