Even the term "Adobe ePub format" makes me cringe, sigh ...

One step at a time! We're talking about publishers here, remember? First they had to take the very scary step to create ebooks, then to decide on what format to use, and now you want them to change their mind on DRM at the same time!

I'm not sure that I understand your point. Amazon are not, and never have been, in a "monopolistic" position in the eBook market.

Maybe this will make those publishers make their books available for purchase by users of non kindle devices. |

What you say is true if you look at the niche market specifically, that which serves the tiny fraction of the world who knows about and appreciates eBooks. But if you look at the general public just coming into awareness of this concept, they don't know of anyone but Amazon and are only opening their eyes to the existence of alternatives. In a way this is a monopoly, albeit virtual and temporary. It's still the same sort of challenge to tackle as a competing company.

Amazon doesn't even sell ebooks outside the US yet, does it?
