The only difficulties I've had with the Ereader system were fairly minor and due to the fact that my credit card number has changed several times over the years. This leads to two difficulties: 1) the Ereader Palm app would only hold one card number in its memory at a time, so at any given time I could only open a subset of my books without entering a new number, at which time a different subset would become available, and 2) When a means of unDRMing them became available, I processed the whole lot (so I could read them with my software of choice). In many cases I had to try my whole list of old numbers before hitting the right one, which was a slight nuisance. I could have redownloaded all the books using my current number, I suppose, but that would've taken even longer over dialup. Now I decontaminate books as soon as I buy them, so the problem doesn't arise.

Edited to add: Well, I had one other problem, due to the undocumented 500-book limit in the Ereader Palm app, but that's unrelated to DRM (except for being a reason to remove it so I could use another app).
