thanks guys for the friendly warnings - obviously DRM is not meant for
anyone without a bank account like NewsCorp or Viacom. I merely
represent a successful fellow who wants to self-publish a few ebooks
for $9.95, not a multi-tentacled conglomerate. Although the Lulu.com
stuff does seem to be the little guy's best hope. In any case, the
client now thinks a simple expiring download key and the honor system
will suffice.
