Just a quick supplementary note... I do understand that the DRM problem is not yet even close to being solved. Nor do I think that anyone really believes we have a satisfactory long run solution in the marketplace yet. Same is really true for formats now. It's not where it needs to be for an ideal customer experience.
But while we can argue about that untill the cows come home, what I really wanted to do here was take a positive look at one aspect of the progress being made in the e-book world that can easily go unnoticed or unappreciated.
Yes, we can look at the glass as half empty and focus on all the remaining challenges. And it's a topic that we will continue to discuss. But even if we must still step in the "cow patties" every so often, lets also take a moment here and there to smell the roses and appreciate all the bits and pieces that are moving the e-book world forward (as well as the people involved in those efforts).
