I'm glad that most swedish publishers have abandoned ADE.
Instead of the "hard DRM" that ADE stands for, they've instead adopted the "soft DRM" as the germans also use.
A hidden (or sometimes not so hidden) unique "waterstamp", created in the ebook when downloaded, allows people to copy the book - for own use - without all the hairpulling associated with Adobes system. Commercial copy is of course still forbidden, hence this stamp that acts as a social or moral compass.
Works great.
A shame that I still have to use ADE when getting my english books.
As mentioned previously in this(?) thread, someone said that even though one can deauthorize the computer (and hopfully the ereader), that doesn't free up authorizations.
Could that really be the case?
I'm getting my fourth or fifth or sixth ereader next week (I'm not sure how the computer/ADE sees it) and I don't want to run out of authorizations.
Anybody who knows?
Take care,
Mange
