Microsoft also sold e-books in its DRM-protected Microsoft Store. This meant that by purchasing e-books we only purchased a license to read them, but in practice it was regularly checked with a link to Microsoft servers each time we wanted to read the books.
Now, Microsoft is pulling out of this market, and DRM will also be shut down. Which means books can not be read anymore. This applies to both purchased and free books. Regardless of the price, they will all be out of reach now. Therefore, Microsoft will reimburse all users of all purchases.
