I'm allowed to put the music on up to 5 devices. I currently have 4
registered, including the one with x64. So in theory, it should work. I
tried restoring the licenses from backup. There were no errors, it said the
backup was restored successfully, but still the music doesn't play. Adobe
also allows files to be copied to several devices. I get an error though
trying to activate. It says to contact customer support, which of course
isn't free.
It was very nice for a while to be able to buy a book in pdf format and copy
it to a cd and take it to work. I didn't have to carry books back and
forth, and they don't take up shelf space. This DRM stuff is a pain though.
