True, but I do stick to a huge amount of DRM-Free books that are offered legally, like Baen books, gutenberg, manybooks. For modern mainstream ones, I do buy the paperback version for my shelf, then do what I have to do to get the DRM-free version if you catch my drift. I want the author to be compensated. But when I buy something I want to own it for real, not license it.
But people the biggest consumers of ebooks are women and the genres are romance, light mystery, etc. That consumer target, buys via kindle, reads, deletes and on the the next one. I don't agree with Amazon donig what they are doing at all. But the vast majority of consumers just don't care. Which is how a lot of these sorts of things work. Frustrating for those of us who do care though!
