Hello Chip and others interested in this thread:

I chose to shre this one article of the several I have read because it talks 
about the DRM (Digital Rights Management) issue.

Here is a quote from the article: 

Analysis: In his exclusive telephone interview with me, Scott Pendergrast said 
he and his brother, Steve, shopped the site around to a number of buyers with 
the understanding that the current philosophy toward e-books would survive-and 
that presumably means that you'll still be able to buy nonDRMed books from 
Fictionwise when publishers allow"

Here is the link to the article:

It is nice to be blind in the digital age.
