Those who prefer to "own" every ebook they read, should probably not buy a Kindle.

Hey, I think it's more about the principle, than specific instances.
In any case, if I could not strip the DRM off Amazon books, I would buy NONE.
One should not be forced to purchase multiple copies in order to re-read a book, or to consult it as reference. This is actually one of the greatest advantages of ereaders: the ability to access a large number of book files you OWN.
As to re-reading Stephen King, or even reading him ..., I'll just hold my tongue
