So, don't buy them. All Adobe does is create the technology that their PAYING customers want to apply to their eBooks. Adobe does not apply the security, only the means to apply it. If they did not, the publsihers would not buy Adobe's Digital Management software, at $5.000.00 USD a crack, and then Adobe wouldn't be able to afford to develop and distribute the FREE eBook Reader. So if you want to whine and complain, go the the source of the problem, which would be the publishers of the eBooks you are not happy with.
