   There's no reason for digital books or **any** other digital media to have the limitations of physical media arbitrarily imposed on them. Digital "lending" is a solved problem: https://u.fsf.org/3eg #DayAgainstDRM #Libraries #ebooks

     @vv221 @eurobubba @endDRM That said I wouldn't be surprised to learn that DRM-Free stores tend to actually pay artists fairly for their work while DRM-encumbered stores tend not to.

     @lanodan @vv221 @endDRM @eurobubba Because it is a regulatory barrier that is artificially imposed. https://kazv.moe/notice/AVl5aLH8a7u6QIKiu0
