Yeah. And now it's moving from movies and music to ebooks.
I don't much care about movies and TV series being subscription-based, as I don't watch them often. Occasionally I want to watch something specific and I subscribe to watch it, maybe watch a few other things as well and then end the subscription afterwards. But as to ebooks, there I must own the things. I absolutely DO NOT want to read borrowed or rented stuff. I buy the books and I want to be able to do with my purchases as I see fit. And no, I'm not going back to paper. If worse comes to worst and any DRM becomes unbreakable, I'll just stop buying any more books and read only what I already have.
