What worries me still: Will there be any future improvements on the PDF part in the Mobi FW? (As this will come from Adobe SDK as well, will they be allowed to use it in the non-ePub FW???) |
Now I get it. I thought the restrictions were only tied to using the DRM-handling components. So Adobe disallows using their SDK if you do not implement DRM? Because if you could use Adobe's SDK to implement DRM-free there would be no collision with Mobipocket.
If, on the other hand, using either MobiPocket or Adobe SDK prevents you from offering any other format even without DRM then i wonder how they can support PDF, HTML, TXT, etc.
Hard to really understand what's going on when I can't read those agreements myself...
