Sci-fi publisher announces Tor and Forge will go DRM-free with all e-book titles

Sci-fi publisher announces Tor and Forge will go DRM-free with all e-book titles

Science fiction is often said to foresee the future, and today, that news couldn't ring more true. Tom Doherty Associates, a subsidiary of Macmillan and publisher of popular sci-fi and fantasy brands such as Tor and Forge, today announced that as of early July, all of its current e-books will be distributed without DRM restrictions. The company's president, Tom Doherty, revealed the shift as a long-time request of both its readers and authors - which unsurprisingly, are a rather tech-savvy bunch.
