More Kindle Limitations Discovered - 0 views

scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/...-kindle-limitations-discovered Kindle ebooks drm piracy
shared by arnie Grossblatt on 25 Jun 09 - Cached
  • As noted earlier, DRM does nothing to prevent piracy. It’s in place on the Kindle to provide proprietary lock-in for Amazon and a little hand-holding comfort for nervous publishers.  It serves to annoy and alienate potential paying customers. The Kindle has great potential as a device, but as long as Amazon continues to cripple it, readers would be advised to seek alternative e-book solutions.

    I can't believe these books haven't been available for years! Also interesting to me because I used to live on the same street and just two blocks down from Beacon Press.

  • I'm not gloomy, though. We will still find our way to quality.
  • I love books as much as anybody. But I love reading more. It is the sustained and individual encounter with ideas and stories that is so bewitching. If new formats allow us to have more of those, let us welcome and learn from them.
