the logical conclusion here is that generation of reproducible content for profit or even for sustenance is innately impossible. this is neither true not desirable. enjoy pedantism on the internet!
Plenty of evidence to the contrary. Somehow I and everyone involved in all of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_major_Creative_Commons... manage to put food on the table. If your business plan requires enforcing impossibilities on the entirety of humanity, maybe consider reworking it before giving up?
Ebook DRM is easily removable, regardless of it it comes from IA, Overdrive or Amazon itself. If you're gonna be internally consistent you have to admit that you DON'T support digital lending and by extension, don't support libraries having a place in the future.
wow. just so, so many things that I didn't say and do not believe. Amazon fixed their DRM issues to a great extent and the gap is narrowing, Apple's Book DRM is currently unbroken, Overdrive's DRM bypass is only available via legacy versions of the app last I checked, etc.
You are the one that is asserting that 1. All DRM is inherently bypassable, which is simply not at all true. and 2. That anyone pushing for improvement is against lending, which is not true. This is what YOU are saying, not me. I am simply saying that if the IA wants to keep going (and I would like them to) they might close an unused http route. That is LITERALLY all I am asserting. Good lord, why even bother?
