    The day has come, #Microsoft will shutdown their #DRM servers which means that all #ebook bought in their store will be gone. Books bought by people under the impression that they will own them like they own their physical books, forever. That's why I only buy DRM-free or watermarked books where I really own the epub files. https://www.wired.com/story/microsoft-ebook-apocalypse-drm #freeCulture #culture #books
