The DRM of the Reader is not the point at all. The real issue is what rights, if any, do we have if we change readers. There are many people out there with DRM Palm files and IMP files that cannot use these files on the Reader. (PDF and DRM PDF is still another issue.)
The better question is what are we going to do with the DRM BBeB files if a new and better Reader comes along that (surprise) does not support them. Sure the non-DRM content can be converted (again), as it has been in the past. Are we to keep multiple readers around to read our full collections?
Even Microsoft changed their music DRM system when they launched the Zume. They want us to pay for each item (book, music, film) on each platform. The Reader is just an output device.
