Of course, such a system would also have to prevent you copying the entire text of the book sentence by sentence, so you'd need some kind of clipping limit like the Kindle currently has. And if you wanted your books easily searchable (say by Apple's Spotlight) you'd be out of luck - it wouldn't be possible to write a spotlight indexer.
And in numerous other was, the DRM would restrict legitimate fair use of the book. And those restrictions would only affect paying customers, not those who go the cracked copy off the darknet.
