They do. They'd much rather go back to the days of paper only. In the electronic world, they are obsolete. They are the horse buggies after the combustion engine was invented.

BexBits, I do have B&N's PC app but hate it-- uninstalled it long ago. I have a few other B&N DRM'd books but they are all PDB format and I can read them on the eReader desktop app with just my name and credit card number.
Like AGB, "promised myself...I'd never buy another drm'ed B&N book" but this particular book I could find nowhere else; I really wanted to reread it and just assumed it was a PDB book because I didn't remember B&N even having the ePub option. I do have the software(s) to strip the DRM and have been trying for a week to figure out how! It's really frustrating because most everyone says how simple it is, but I just keep going in circles, following threads, clicking links, hoping something break this mental block I've got. d |

Then, you can read the PDBs from whatever app you wish. |

As for DRM stripping that was my experience when I briefly toyed with it. I'm usually at least adequately competent with software but I was quickly convinced that it wasn't worth the hassle. |

Charliebird,
I have been thinking and thinking, trying to recall what steps I took. If you use the "ignoble" files, it is necessary to have the Barnes and Noble reader installed to have the stuff do what it's supposed to. Otherwise it can't find the "key" which apparently reside inside the BN reader-app. I hope that was the "block" that didn't make it work for you. |

So I googled the term. Sure enough, there's a Wikipedia entry which claims the term has recently come to be applied to file sharing (and by implication illicit file sharing) networks in general. And (surprise!), apparently it was a group of Microsoft employees who redefined the term. Quote:
