This ID is something that gets used with Adobe Digital Editions.  It's meant 
for you to create a unique identifier that can be associated with 
copy-protected eBooks that you purchase commercially, or that you download from 
the Library, and that are protected with Adobe Digital Editions.  I don't 
believe that any content that used the ADE copy protection can be read 
accessibly with any screen-reader program on any platform.  I went through the 
exercise of setting up an ID and trying this with the Adobe Digital Editions 
application (separate download) for the Mac. I've also tried this with the 
Bluefire ereader app for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.  In all these 
instances you can hear the books announced, but none of the actual book content 
gets exposed to VoiceOver.  I believe this is also true for all screen readers 
used on other platforms (such as Windows), too.  Maybe this is something that a 
low-vision reader could use, but I couldn't get any feedback with VoiceOver of 
anything within a book.  It's like working (or rather not working <smile>) with 
the Kindle app on the Mac.

Cheers,

Esther
