I won't buy DRM'd ebooks, so I tend to buy them in treeware format.
i was about to post the same thing.

i have bought *some* ebooks (quite a few since i got my liseuse) ; however the majority of my books are PD which i've gotten first directly from Project Gutenberg (this is what eventually motivated me to look into dedicated reading devices in the first place, since i was so excited to find all these brilliant books for free but realised i would never read them on my pc) and later from MR once i found this site. and like jellby i've gotten quite a lot of free promotional ebooks as well, and sometimes i convert them myself.

if you like, a mod could add an option for this... let us know.
