- You should decrypt all of your purchases as soon as possible. Most major formats, including ePub, have been broken. As much as I'd like to buy non-DRM'd books, it's not always possible. If you decrypt your books, you won't need to worry about an email address change.

I really don't know if the keys change if you change the address, but I would be very surprised if that was the case. This isn't like the eReader encryption which was tied to the credit card. With ADE the keys are kept seperately, so an email address change (or even a name change) should not be a problem.

OK thanks.

You know, if Adobe really think the DRM issue is settled, they need to address all these niggles with the way they do it now. Without (or even with) the help from people here, how would I (if I was a non-computer person) deal with it. I'd probably not even be aware of possible issue - and might well lose my purchased books at some future time.

but again, thanks for the help
