We're actually on the same side of this particular issue, but you're so eager to pounce that you haven't noticed. Anyone who questions anything is immediately shouted down as a pawn of the evil DRM conspiracy monster.

I apologize for misunderstanding the original comment; however the comparison between drm and locks/vaults has been made explicitly at least 3 or 4 times in various posts (maybe here, maybe on e-book community - cannot remember for sure) by people who clearly stated they want drm, drm is useful and so on. Again I apologize for lumping this post with those, but I am so tired of all these arguments and the ones about e-book prices...
