I will admit to having lost track of his point, if any, after the first few pages. I think he was trying to argue that we all need an Android eInk reader so we can use various apps to allow reading ebooks from multiple sites without violating their licensing. Throw in a soupçon of accusations that everyone else is a criminal for DRM removal and/or format conversion. Then mix in the risible belief that no company will ever go out of business and shut down their DRM services.
From his logic, if I download a non-DRMmed epub from Kobo and convert it to read on a Kindle, I am committing a criminal violation of copyright law. This despite copyright being basically a civil matter under the laws in my area with needing to sell/rent/profit from copyright infringement being needed for criminal prosecution.
