I've gotten into a little discussion on DRM and ebooks over at Feedbooks. If you're interested in potential business models for authors in a world of infinite goods, hop on over there and join the discussion. Especially if you can contribute more than me (That is, if you can do more than parrot what you read on Techdirt).

The jerks at Astak have pushed back the release date of their entry-level ebook reader. Again.

Why can't someone release a reasonably-priced ebook reader that doesn't suck? The instant someone does it, I will buy one. Please, someone. Please. Not you, Sony. I wouldn't buy a fire extinguisher from you if my head was on fire. But anyone else.
