Ah, yes, that pesky DRM. I read a post recently about viruses in eBooks, and someone remarked that DRM was the only virus he was aware of.

All the different formats are bad enough, but DRM just makes it worse. My sense of it is that DRM only retards the development of a profitable eBook market, second only to how much eReaders cost.
