Of course in my opinion it's also stupid to leave the DRM intact in any case.
Thus, my investigation into DeDRM ... <chuckle>. But quite apart from that, I object to the 'lifetime license' concept as opposed to eBook *ownership*. DRM just happens to be one tool that empowers The Powers That Be to impose that ridiculous, and IMO unethical restriction of inheritance rights.
