Cyber Killer asked Robin Sloan:

Would you put your ebooks to some DRM-free store? Currently you sell them in the largest DRM supporters out there - Amazon, B&N, iTunes. I loved Annabel Scheme and would like to get some of your other books, but I won't buy with DRM (plus those stores also refuse to sell ebooks to my country). A good store is e.g. Smashwords - could you sell your ebooks there also?

Robin Sloan Unfortunately, this isn't my decision—it's entirely up to my publishers. I prefer "naked" e-books myself, and I find it heartening that Tor (corporate sibling to my American publisher) seems to have been successful with its experiments in DRM-free publishing. I'd love the see the whole industry move away from DRM.
