For example, EPUB content protected with Apple DRM won't work on numerous eReaders like the Barnes & Noble nook and the Sony Reader, not to mention future, forthcoming models. Similarly, protected EPUB eBooks obtained from thousands of online booksellers (including Barnes & Noble) and most public libraries (including The New York Public Library)—are unreadable on the iPad.

they everyone's is a closed circle. and don't believe everything you read on adobe websites. they're so full of bull these days in hating apple because of their resistance to flash that they're too blind to see the hands in front of their face. you most certainly CAN read books from barnes & noble and books obtained from thousands of online booksellers on the iPad! you just will be doing it from a different app (free app) than the built-in iBooks app. adobe doesn't want you to know this though, they just want you to think that apple is satan.
