Scott,
This isn't to flame you, nor argue with you, nor bash you, nor challenge
you, so know that up front. I am actually genuinely interested.
Do you have a web site that talks more about this law which you could direct
me to? I'm simply just asking, as I really would like to learn more about
this, if that be the case.
Chris.

I believe it’s fairly trivial to crack the DRM if it’s present and remember
there was a law passed that allows for breaking the protection on files for
reasons of accessibility.

I dont' think that's possible, seeing that IBooks are DRM protected.

Unless you were able to put the book through the likes of the KNFB reader
and possibly it will OCR the images into a readable format.

The cookbook probably has images (pictures) of the recipes rather than the
text of the recipes. Therefore, that particular cookbook is not
accessible, and Apple will probably refund your money.

Hello all,
Today, I purchased two cookbooks in the iBooks store. I could have
purchased them on Kindle, but because I have generally had better luck
navigating the specifics of a book and iBooks, I spent my money there.
Neither book is readable on my iPad or my iPhone. After I get rid of the
ridiculous non-friendly view in table of contents by changing it to a
list of you, and double tap on the chapter I want to read, I don't get
anything intelligible. I get random letters and voiceover saying
"background image" background image" background image" ad infinitum. It
has been a while since I have purchased a cookbook. And if this is how
they're all going to be, it's going to be a lot longer before I waste
anymore money on Apple's books. Have others had similar problems? I wrote
Apple accessibility. And I suppose they're probably going to send me off
to some damned link that will have six other links that I will have to
follow and eventually get nowhere, which is what happened to me the last
time they sent me on a wild goose chase after an iTunes problem. I hope
not, since this is clearly an excess ability problem, so they ought to go
to bat and number one, figure out what causes it and fix it and also help
out with refunds. But I really am curious if others are having this
problem.
