Markus, thanks for pointing that out — I like Preview on the Mac, so it’s unfortunate that I wouldn’t be able to use that PDF reader.

Crucially, they’re offering DRM protected pdfs which can only be read with a sufficiently activated Adobe Acrobat.
No PDF reader of your choice and crucially you’re screwed if Adobe folds twenty years down the road.
They also know what you own and sell.
