About e-books and DRM

Neil in DRM: Digital Restrictions Management Damages Reading Magic:

So when I buy a book, I want to be able to read it on my choice of hardware and software, whenever I want, wherever I want, for as long as I want.

I don’t want to worry about whether the publisher or the software provider will go bust, require updated software with regressive features, bait-and-switch how I can read my books, or anything like that.

Neither do I.
