But Readium DRM would mean we are screwed. There is no eInk Reader that supports LCP. And why would I want to buy another Reader when I just bought one? The thing is, this DRM needs to go away or at the least not be used.

What good is cheaper if we are unable to read our purchased eBooks where we want?
