Now the evil amazon ecosystem is bad, but no worse than Apple, Kobo or B&N. Amazon and B&N appear to have the easiest to remove DRM, so we go with them. People shouldn’t have to do that, or know the programming tricks, but our corporate copyright masters have forced us into that corner, at least most of the time. I do try to spend my money with authors and publishers that do not act stupidly, Tor and Cory Doctorow are there, we can only hope others catch up.
