I suspect it's because the Publishers don't have a clause in their contracts with the DRM supplies stating that the DRM suppliers must patch any breaks in the DRM system within a certain time frame.

It seems certain that the big music publishers had such a clause in their contracts with Apple.

Why haven't the e-book companies patched their readers to invalidate the cracks?

(Not that I want them to or anything. I'm just curious why they haven't.)
