Yes. Jon you could say that same thing about Sony Reader or Kindle or any reader that uses DRM. Why single out the nook/B&N. They (and Adobe) are just taking the technology one more step and allowing it to be able to "share" even if that sharing is limited. I suspect all Adobe DRM implementers will move to this new version at some point.

What would be better is we fought against DRM as a whole by inundating the implementers, publishers, authors etc. with a campaign of protest and terror.
