Those who should worry are those who buy Adobe software from their website. Their CC info could have very well been taken but those who buy ADE ebooks should not have to worry about anything but what info is on Adobe's account page.
What I was attempting to allude to (poorly, I was on the run - my bad!) was that if some of Adobe's business partners like Kobo or Sony email accounts were hacked then the possibilities for a leach further into Kobo or Sony by the hackers using those hacked accounts (and hacking others) could also be on the cards .....
