@mlinksva if they "must", it's not ownership. I don't think libraries would do this voluntarily, but I think there isn't enough data.

@mlinksva threading a needle here, but I don't think they're wholly incompatible. But if pubs insist on DRM, then it's not ownership.

@mlinksva I didn't have the characters to say it's just one theory. But I'm sort of a burrito historian, if you weren't aware.
