Post E-Book Stores: More Important than the Device

From ShelfAwareness: Shifting the focus away from choosing which e-reading device to buy, the Wall Street Journal explored the options involved in deciding the equally important question of "which e-bookstore to frequent."

"Reading devices like the iPad, Kindle and Nook will come and go, but you'll likely want your e-book collection to stick around. Yet unlike music, commercial e-books from the leading online stores come with restrictions that complicate your ability to move your collection from one device to the next. It's as if old-fashioned books were designed to fit on one particular style of bookshelves. What happens when you remodel?" the Journal wrote.

My comment: Jeff Bezos has also recently made a point to differentiate the Kindle device from Amazon's e-book store. Will DRM soon become an outdated idea?
