If you raise that silly little ability to convert books into a LRF format then....er, what was the Connect store for again? Oh yes, I remember: to sell public domain books for profit and make the current publishing "push list" available for full hardback price.

Good point, stxopher, but there's also the minor detail that
they (as a big, sue-able corporation) really can't go around suggesting that people break DRM.
While
I may agree that because the .LIT DRM disables an accessibility feature (read aloud), and is therefore covered under the DMCA exception, when push comes to shove, a court will have to decide the finality of that question, and even being right can be
very expensive in a courtroom when you're a big, sue-able corporation like Sony.
