Maybe everyone needs to a little less concerned about what everyone else is doing. I have used Mac, Windows and Linux and I still don't care what the hell anyone else uses. Is anyone else tired of these same arguments over and over? You either have a computer or you don't. Get a life.
I love ebooks, I have 10-15 of then loaded on my Zire at any time. But... only non-drm. I am not going to RENT a fucking book. I'll buy ebooks when they sell me a novel, in text format, for 50-75. (And I'll probably buy 10-15 at a time) There are lots of people who want digital music, movies and books, who are not going to accept overpriced, drm'd product.
Nobody likes to take chances if they can make a sure buck. The same thing is happening with movies these days. And who likes a sure buck? Corporations. Sign o the times.

That's 50-75 cents. I guess the cent symbol is a little to advanced for /.
