Irex Ditching Mobipocket no comments
Irex announced today that Mobipocket DRM will not be supported on the 800S or 800SG ereaders. This is because Mobipocket, which is owned by Amazon, does not allow Mobipocket DRM to be supported on devices which also support other DRM systems such as Adobe Digital Editions.
Irex’s iLiad ereader will be the only Irex ereader to continue Mobipocket DRM support. Owners of the DR1000 will be able to choose whether to keep the current Mobipocket support or replace it with ADE when the ePub/Adobe Digital Editions upgrade is released.
