On the other hand, remember that Sony used to have a music store and then they closed it down. If you bought copy-protected music from their store, and you have since bought a new music player, you are now out of luck. Unless of course, you remove the DRM yourself.
As I said earlier, Ian's story is simply an illustration of why DRM is anti-consumer. It doesn't matter who you buy your reader from. If the content is locked you face potential headaches down the road. And you are at the whim of whatever changes are made by your content provider.
