Joseph,

You mean the Amazon "Swindle"?

"If enough people accept the DRM on ebooks, there will be no incentive
in the future for Amazon, or anybody else to offer non-DRM ebooks."

Imagine a library 100 years in the future where a book might "expire"
after one reading or can not be read at all due to the politics of the
day. Currently library ebooks are distributed by one company and are
DRM'ed even if the origin is in the public domain.
