Since my last post (a little over half a year ago) I have gotten an iPad, and just as I thought, the difference is night and day, and by taking screenshots of every page, I can just print them out, and read them that way, though $500 just for an iPad just to read an ebook is a bit excessive
If I pay for something, I should be able to use it (read it in this case) without having to go out and buy another expensive device to do so, when I go out to buy an actual paper book, I don't have to buy a $500 pair of reading glasses with the book do I? It would be simple to allow a limited amount of printings, or make it viewable on a PC, but since Apple doesn't allow either, I feel I would have the right to remove the DRM protection as long as I am using it for my own purposes, and after all, it was paid for
@CylonGlitch, at the time I started this thread, I have searched everywhere and could not find a DRM stripper, I have not searched since getting the iPad, though I would be interested in hearing where you found one
I have said many times on my earlier posts that I found it funny that iBooks had been out for over a year and there was no DRM stripper, if a FairPlay stripper is now available as you say, I find it even funnier that it took somebody that long to crack it, I mean really, iOS jailbreaks come out sooner than that, and a jailbreak should take longer than cracking DRM protection
