"[DRM] penalizes the people that aren't trying to screw you," Scalzi says. "The average person just wants to own the damn thing. Let them own the damn thing."
The Test Case
Just like an epic space conflict described in one of Scalzi's novels, the battle over DRM and ebooks rages far and wide throughout the publishing industry. At this year's Publishers Launch Conference (held in June during BookExpo America [BEA]), Scalzi was front and center. As one of three Tor Books novelists on stage, he stood before the industry attendees to rail against DRM during a session entitled "Taking the Plunge: DRM-free from a Big-Six Publisher."
