I'm glad libraries are moving toward ebook ownership, but odd to see @BoingBoing promoting DRM. http://prkr.ph/16c (@robmyers agrees.)
-
@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.

@ossguy Sure, but as you say, DMCA is the reason the license is necessary. What's the update in Canada?

@johnsu01 Bill #C11 may pass soon: http://michaelgeist.ca/content/view/6375/125/ Basically the #DMCA for #Canada. Quite sad.
