The nice thing about standards, though, is that there are so many different ones to choose from.

I think it's obligatory at this point to reference this XKCD comic:

Something is not a standard (in this case the Sony URMS) unless it's used enough.

In Poland almost no e-book bookstore uses DRM now. Adobe DRM was fairly popular in 2011-2012 but afterwards it was dropped and now most e-books are available in both EPUB+MOBI formats only with watermarks.

BTW. According to latest survey by Virtualo, 66% of e-readers in Poland are Kindle, then 11% PocketBook, 7% InkBOOK and 4% Kobo.

So we are on the podium, but we have ambitions for more!
