At issue: the fundamental benefits of the three main formats of software—Adobe's ADEPT DRM, Apple's FairPlay DRM and Marlin Trust Management Organization (MTMO)—designed to prevent the piracy of digital ebook content. Do they actually prevent piracy or over-sharing, as they are intended to? Or do they ultimately hinder ownership for those who legally purchase content? Opponents say placing access-control technologies on digital content to limit its usage does nothing but penalize those who buy an electronic edition of a book.
