There are a lot of people who enjoy their Kindles. I’ve takena hard line on buying stuff with DRM because of things like this: Amazon remotely deletes Orwell e-books from Kindles, unpersons reportedly unhappy. A Kindle version of Orwell’s 1984 was from a publisher that didn’t have rights to the book, so Amazon went ahead and used the DRM to delete the book from people’s Kindles. So far we have seen them turn off text-to-speech, canceling accounts and locking Kindles up, and throwing in all kinds of other hidden limitations.
Remember, If you can’t open it, you don’t own it!
