Looking for app to read DRM-Protected ebooks

[igalbog]

Hi,

I have a Zenithink ZT-180 tablet with Android 2.1, and I'm looking for software that would read DRM-protected epub books on my tablet.

Does something like this exist? Alternatively, is there a way to convert\break this protection?

Thank you,
Igal

P.S - I didn't find any thread regarding this, but I apologize if it's already been discussed.

you would probably have better luck going to an e-book forum like mobileread and asking.

Buy the book.

Buy the book.

Presumably he already has; if he'd downloaded it illegally it would not have DRM (and, sad to say, would be readable without jumping through hoops).

Aldiko has Adobe DRM capability and can even do library books.

You'll need to know which kind of DRM you are dealing with in order to find an app that will read it. Likely it's ADE but I don't want to jump to conclusions. Anyway, I understand the latest version of Aldiko will handle ADE-encrypted .epubs. If it's something else, let us know.

If you want to use a different .epub reader instead of being restricted to one that might not be optimal for you, yes, DRM is rather easily removed from books you have purchased. This is in something of an untested legal gray area in the USA. Google is your friend, and so is Apprentice Alf.
