There is a certain series of books, that several installments are only e-books, and the only place you could buy them in Brazil was from Fictionwise.
Except Barnes & Noble bought Fictionwise and closed them down, and left a faq on Fictionwise site saying that you cannot even download the books you bought on that site if you are not in the US...
Meaning, that I NEED to pirate books. ZERO stores sell it to Brazil, and ALL of them have DRM. The only way to get the book, is find a illegal copy (because even if you bought legally in the US, the DRM would not allow you to read it in Brazil anyway)

Ebook DRM is such a silly idea. Even absent vulnerabilities in the software, it's trivial to screenscrape & OCR the text.
Or worse...

True, though that doesn't sound like a book I would enjoy reading. Ebook formatting is terrible enough as it is.
