Think of all of those Readers that are no longer supported that use RMDSK (ADE) and will never be upgraded to handle any other form of DRM. all of those users would be screwed as this new DRM will not work with their devices.
People will be pissed if they start buying ePub that they then find out they cannot read because the eBooks are not working with whatever they currently use.
This new DRM is just another way to screw with eBooks in an effort to try to get people to dump eBooks and move back to pBooks.

Exactly. The new DRM won't take off unless e-readers manufacturers follow to update. People won't buy stuff they can't read.
And personally, I like adept, can be easily removed
. I'll be more wary with buying stuff if I can't remove the DRM anymore.
