so you have commited a crime, bc afaik stripping drm is illegal. At this point why not just pirate it? Are you doing this to pay the author for his work?

I have no problem paying for content but I don't want to be restricted in the ways that I can view it.

koreader is great, I have a (very) hacked up pinenote that runs koreader, and the reading experience is very good. It's also extensible enough that you can easily port/customize it to new devices or hardware.
