the problem is also complicated by the authors ; i recently learned that in france, the majority of the major editors who are getting into digital publishing are already convinced that drm should be dropped. but some of their authors are still quite panicked at the thought of all those nasty pirates stealing the bread out of their mouths. so they insist on drm. so the real struggle now is to educate all the authors, as well as the publishers. i don't know how we can help do this, maybe by writing to them, maybe by inviting them to participate on this forum, where they can see for themselves that drm is pointless and only causes trouble for legitimate customers...
