I agree with many of the article author's points. However, I am also extremely aware that I typically pay under half the price of the physic book for e-books. Given that paying authors, editorial and production staff is often the most significant cost in producing a book I feel like it's a trade-off. I'm giving up some rights I'd like, for much lower cost item. For the most part I'm ok with that. Obviously if there was a better option for lending ebooks I'd take it.
