People (especially here) talk about DRM as a bad thing, but what is the 'proper foss compliant' way to safeguard one's (properly licensed) work anyway?

ePub format is closed. Amazon not allows 3rd party.
Perhaps IREX DR800 will. At least it uses GNOME. http://jaap.haitsma.org/2009/10/09/b...er-uses-gnome/

ePub is already hackable, isn't it?
I'm seeing less leaked\hacked Kindle formatted content out there..

Google for "skindle" for other options, though my recent experience seems to indicate that you need an old version of Kindle for PC to defeat the Kindle DRM.
