DRM: To read or not to read

1. Yes, please don't hijack this thread. Starting a new thread about "DRM and ebook readers" would be better and more interesting to a perhaps wider audience, as this is an important issue not tied to any specific iOS reader app like BookMaster.

2. @49Kat: Since you first raised this topic 6 days ago, I haven't seen anyone else second your feature request yet. In fact, a few persons have clearly expressed that they are not in favor of DRM and I doubt they would want to pay for it.

3. Maplepop needs to hear more voices expressing the same demand before seriously considering the DRM feature, as BookMaster is a consumer product for the mass market.
