摘要

數位閱讀並不是将傅統紙本内容直接搬到螢幕上，數位閱讀的閱聽行為與數位出版品都以别於傅統的新面貌出现－媒體即訊息，新的媒體形式将創造出新的可能。
各式數位内容產業，在過往的發展中都面臨到如何防止内容被盗拷複製，而造經濟損失的難題。不論是用软體解決，或是利用硬體来保護，數位出版業也在這樣的環境下做了許多相似的嘗試。
消費紙本書或電子書的最大差異在於，前者購買實物後者購買服務。數位版權管理是解决這問題的核心，成敗關鍵或許不在於保護技術與破解技術之間的矛盾之争，而在於數位版權管理是否能與企業的商業策略緊密結合。

Various digital content industries faced the difficulties that how to prevent the economic loss resulting from illegal copy in the past developing process. Digital publisher tried in many ways, including protective software and hardware, to prevent the digital content from being pirated and illegally used.
The most significant difference between buying books and buying e-books is that the former means to buy the real object and the latter means to buy the reading service. Digital rights management is the core solution of the problem-how to preventing the content form copy. The key factor of how things would be done doesn't depend on the war of protecting and cracking techniques, but on whether the digital rights management can be closely cooperated with the business strategy or not.
