First, ebooks should not have DRM. I only buy Kindle books because I know I can remove it; if I couldn't remove it I would not buy them, period. So this is a shitty move there.

Second, whoever wrote this is a jackass and should seriously consider never writing again. I mean look at this garbage:

> This is how Amazon offers some of the best-formatted e-books on the market (blowing ePub out of the water).

> The thing to remember here is that it is illegal to remove DRM, even for personal use, but that doesn't stop everyone, creating a problem

> so it's not like we are losing access to dragging and dropping files onto a Kindle, we are simply losing access to a tool that facilitated easy piracy by pushing older formats of retail books from the website to your Kindle over USB.

This never had anything to do with piracy for me, but I refuse to "purchase" something I don't own and can't control, and that includes DRM.
