[QUOTE="Cergorach, post: 1587452, member: 725"] At the moment the secrity seems to be holding, no easy removal of the Adobe DRM. So for the moment the security is good, most publishers say that they have 90% of their sales in the first 90 days, so every day that the Adobe DRM holds against pirates is one more day of customers that can't get your product through pirate means and will be 'forced' to actually buy the product if they want it. I'm guessing this is more then the 9% lost sales due to people not liking DRM... Yeah... Right... You wouldn't be part of one of those doom sayer cults that predicts the end of the world every year, and every year is quite wrong? I have yet to see any contract that the folks at DTRPG signed, but my guess would be that they aren't actually barred from selling their pdfs elsewhere, they're just barred from selling their pdfs elsewhere without Adobe DRM. Which in the current situation creates an exclusive agreement. This of course all gues work, because no one who's seen a signed contract is talking (and rightly so)... [/QUOTE]
