Because of these tightly imposed restrictions, ebookworms are more or less FORCED to go down the darknet path, especially after attempting to buy the book legally only to be faced with every obstacle imaginable to prevent them from doing so.
I have spent 3 days trying my damnedest to buy the last book in a series that I could previously buy online with no issues at all and now cannot.
I am hoping as the release date draws near that other ebook stores offer it for sale and previously successful workarounds allow me to pay for and acquire the book.
If that proves impossible then I have to explore other options. Options I really want to avoid.
I have long held the view that geographical restrictions would prove more insidious than DRM. I firmly believe that view is correct.
