there are also publishers (like Baen) that sell e-books without DRM.

however the 'big 6' publishers are all making the same mistakes with e-books that the big music publishers did several years ago. they haven't yet gotten to the point of suing their customers, but if they keep making the same stupid mistakes they should start doing so in a couple of years.
