No offense taken.

It is just that I lived through hardware upgrade, there is no way in hell that I will ever buy a novel in PDF or DRM that can not be stripped off.

I do not trust even Sony or Amazon to survive in publishing business and to provide "guardianship" of my purchased content. I am the best guardian there is.

I will agree with you, though, that analogy with paper is important for the initial acceptance of the technology.
