the online eBook shop is open to everyone and every device capable of reading LCP DRM files. That means they are protected from piracy, but more universally supported that the AZW3 and AZW books Amazon sells for Kindle.

LCP is nasty DRM on par with KFX on newest Kindles, but are there ANY
dedicated ereaders other than Pocketbook that support LCP?
Piracy isn't an issue for consumers and DRM is a negative. Even perfect DRM doesn't stop piracy but is control of consumers stopping them doing backups, locking them into proprietary solutions and limiting reading choices.
LCP is only a plus for Pocketbook and ill-informed paranoid publishers. Even Apple iTunes MP3s no longer have DRM.
It won't affect Amazon at all, nor Kobo shop sales.
