Title from the article. Interesting article, with some good words from our DRM-free favorite Cory Doctorow.

I would if I could, but Kindles new DRM can get around DeDRM. Waiting for an update. Trying to find a new way to buy books but seems like you just get locked into someone else DRM, which may have less support around DRM removal

Will checkout, is there a K4PC for Mac? I saw that DeDRM stopped working with the kindle for Mac changes recently

Sorry, no idea. I just shared the guide

I've been having the same problem. I'd love a drm free e-reader, but even if I found one finding drm free content is not easy.

I'm just buying analog books now. Less convenient in some ways, but at least I know what I'm getting.
