Tangent: Baen has a really cool system (via Webscriptions.net) that makes universal availability one of the main reasons to buy their ebooks. All your purchases, ever, are tied to your account (email account typically) and you can always log in from any computer and read your books online, or download them in a number of formats including plain HTML (with no DRM) or emailing it your Kindle. No chance of losing them, ever, and no need for storage space. Obviously this universal-availability thing wouldn't work as well for software because it *doesn't* run in a web browser, but Baen Webscriptions is a classy service and if you're into books you should check them out. And there's no DRM. At all.
