Guys, I'm not positive on this one, but I'm going to guess that maybe - just maybe - there's an easier way to crack an EBook's DRM than physically taking pictures of the screen (via scanner OR picture) from each page. That seems about as efficient as cracking your iPod's DRM by singing your friend the song yourself.
As long as somebody can make a backup to a computer hard drive then it is possible to crack the DRM.
I have my own rules for passwords.
1: never use a word that can be in a dictionary
2: use something I can remember through association (something that has meaning to me, but not something easy to figure out)
3: limit the number of passwords I use so I limit the number of passwords I need to remember.
So I hate it when a site tell me I need 8 digits with upper and lowercase password and numbers and special char, or tells me I need to change my password ever XX days. I think it just makes it harder for me not for the hacker who "might" try to get my password
