Seems there's a limit on how many times you can download a given book to it.

And this is why DRM (Digital Rights Management) is bad.

ETA: Some are saying it's a limit on the number of devices that you can install to

But even if that's the problem, it's still bogus because nowhere are you *told* this when you buy a book.
