Amazon closes woman's account and wipes her Kindle
Tinman57:
I know I'm going to sound like a broken record, but... don't buy anything that has DRM, and do what you can to prevent others from doing so as well. If you must have the content and can't find a non-DRM source, pirate it - and do what you can to convince others that this is an acceptable thing to do. There's only one way to get rid of DRM: vote with your wallet.
As for ebooks on ipad: Calibre + Stanza. Fsck the horrid itunes crap.
It's a shame Amazon are being so stupid, as the kindle is a nifty little device, and e-ink is much better on your eyes than a TFT screen. But so be it.-f0dder (October 22, 2012, 03:50 PM)
