There are still existing reading applications where every time the book is opened, it needs a connection to the DRM server to allow reading. Other applications do not download the book for offline reading, you need a live internet connection.
I don't use that - so it doesn't matter to me.

Yes, devices failed for me too, but I always had the right replacement ready to go.
